Adetunwase Adenle, a four-time Guinness World Records holder and co-founder of Animation Hub, has officially announced the launch of the Feature Earth AI Creators Programme, a nationwide initiative aimed at equipping Nigerian children with skills in artificial intelligence, animation, digital storytelling and environmental innovation.

Spearheaded by Adenle—who is also the founder of the Slum Art Foundation and Project Coordinator of the Feature Earth AI Creators Programme—the project seeks to inspire a new generation of creators capable of harnessing technology to address environmental challenges through storytelling and innovation.

Launched on June 5 to mark World Environment Day, the initiative will engage 5,760 schools across Nigeria, with 24 children selected from each participating school. More than 138,000 children between the ages of eight and 15 are expected to benefit from training in artificial intelligence, animation, environmental awareness, creative problem-solving and digital content creation.
