The Africa Prizes recognise African engineers and engineering teams who have made outstanding contributions to engineering practice, engineering education, or engineering in the service of society. The prizes are established by AAE, and review is carried out by an independent committee of Fellows, under nomination, conflict-of-interest and public notice rules.
- Nomination is open to all individuals and teams working in engineering in Africa, not limited to Fellows.
- Each prize has clearly stated criteria, nomination requirements and review process.
- The award ceremony is normally held alongside AAE’s annual meeting, to broaden public awareness.
