Rising Stars is talent scouting initiative powered by AOA. Through national competitions and training camps (in-person and online), we identify high potential high-school students.

Africa is full of bright minds. Rising Stars is how we find them.

By working with national education systems, local math societies, and partner organisations, we support and launch country-level math competitions and training programs that bring these students into the spotlight. Whether through formats like Math Kangaroo, or custom national competitions we co-design with partners, our goal is simple: identify talent early, nurture it continuously, and connect it to opportunities that simply aren’t accessible through traditional schooling.
