The most recent fact sheet highlights that new Ebola cases continue to decrease in Liberia, and the number of confirmed cases has declined by 43 percent between December 22nd and January 5th in Sierra Leone, according to the United Nations (U.N.) World Health Organization (WHO). In addition, the fact sheet highlights how USAID partners have worked to open one Ebola treatment unit (ETU) and four community care centers (CCCs) in Sierra Leone. The latest fact sheet can be downloaded here. On January 15th, U.N. Special Envoy on Ebola Dr. David Nabarro said while the number of new Ebola cases in Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea is declining, there are at least 50 micro-outbreaks in the three hardest hit countries. While Dr. Nabarro said it is good news that Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea are now reporting the lowest weekly totals of new Ebola cases since this summer, he cautioned that the emergence of micro-outbreaks evidences there are still chains of transmission that need to be understood. He argued the key will be to continue efforts to get local communities to change their traditional healing rituals and funeral and burial practices.

    2016 100 MOST INFLUENTIAL YOUNG AFRICANS A Publication by AFRICA YOUTH AWARDS the Biggest AFrican Youth Awards Scheme which Recognises the Achievements of Young Africans, Young Change Makers on the Continent and Beyond www.africayouthawards.org About Us Africa Youth Awards is a prestigious award scheme with the prime aim of showing appreciation for the work of young Africans in Africa and the diaspora. Launched in 2014, the awards scheme was inspired by the lack of recognition for young Africans who have selflessly dedicated their lives to ensuring the future of Africa is optimistic. Youth movements are taking place all over the continent. Young people are becoming successful entrepreneurs, inventors, politicians, journalists, celebrities, educators, media personalities, advocates and role models. There is a precious need and business opportunity for Africa to reward these young achievers and leaders as they are the future of Africa. We must be able to award and appreciate these young people for their achievements, and as a result of this we believe that greater opportunities will be presented to them, which will enable them to continue what they have started and use their stories and experience to impact the lives of other young Africans across the world. We are confident that the Africa Youth Awards will continue to bring together these like minded young people who are passionate about the development and progress of Africa, and are making efforts wherever they are to see that Africa fulfils its promising potential. 100 Most Influential Young Africans When we opened nominations for Africa Youth Awards 2015, we immediately noticed stories submitted from across the world showed how Young Africans are rising to the occasion of leading and being part of the revolution sweeping across the continent.
