Elisha Kehinde Olukanni

Germany

My name is Elisha; I was born and grew up in Nigeria, visited over 20 countries advocating for peace, and lived, worked, and volunteered in 4 countries in the last five years.

I stand as an ambassador of peace, and I cherish living diversity. My passion and journey lie in my commitment to fostering positive change and inspiring others to reach their full potential.

With AIESEC, the most prominent youth-run organization, I facilitated over 100 cross-cultural exchange programs for national offices in Nigeria, Ivory Coast, and Jordan. I currently serve as the Regional Vice President of the Alumni Body of AIESEC in the Middle East and Africa.

Amidst my academic pursuits in Agriculture and ongoing master’s studies in Sustainability International Agriculture in Germany, I have meticulously blended my knowledge with hands-on experience in business development, project management, and human resources. Awards, such as the Humanitarian Award by the Nigerian Association of Agricultural Students and the TCS Ace Program Contest by AIESEC International, bear testimony to my commitment and excellence.

As an ambassador for peace, I orchestrated a Youth Speak Forum, bringing together over 500 representatives from 14 countries to engage in meaningful dialogue. My multifaceted skill set encompasses program design, sales, and the execution of training and development initiatives, making me a well-rounded professional poised to contribute significantly to the Global Peace Summit Qatar 2024.

In summary, my strength lies in overcoming challenges and making things happen. One of the most incredible things I did was deciding to donate one of my kidneys in 2018 to save the life of my twin brother, who had kidney failure and is very happy today that he is a medical doctor.
