Henry Anumudu (2022 Africa and International Development) has been named winner of the 2023 University of Being Edinburgh alumni award. Henry is a former Mastercard Foundation scholar at the University. Since graduating, he has shown commitment to creating educational opportunities for children from low-income communities, and established the not-for-profit organisation Sharing Life Africa, supporting thousands of young people to get the most out of their education.

Henry also currently leads strategic communications at Teach for All, an organisation that also promotes equal access to education for children. 

The Being Edinburgh award is about shared values rather than an absolute measure of success and is open to all of the university’s alumni.
