NuVsionPAC works to encourage the grassroots participation of Africa’s youth in the socio-political process by five strategic means:
Benjamin gained national prominence in his native Liberia when he delivered what was described as one of the most inspirational speeches at the National Conference on the Future of Liberia in 1998. At the conclusion of the conference, with a unanimous consensus from his peers, Benjamin was appointed by the President of Liberia to serve as the youth advisor to the government at the age of 17. He served in this capacity for one year prior to his departure to the United States to pursue his academic studies.
With this portfolio came its challenges and triumphs. Being, the lonely voice in the midst of a bureaucratic system long design to pursue dominance, Benjamin had his eyes set on the youth agenda. He was successful in finally bringing to the center stage of national politics the plights of Liberian youths. He worked with youth organizations nationally and coordinated with the appropriate agencies of the government to implement programs from scholarships to HIV/AIDS awareness. He has proudly represented Liberia at numerous conferences where he sought to bring the world’s attention to the plights of Liberians.
Mr. Sanvee currently serves on the Board of Directors of The Evolution Foundation, a nonprofit organization he co-founded in 2003, to focus on the educational and social challenges facing young people across the continent of Africa. He’s a devout Christian.
