Anotidaishe Chinyadza

With a fierce belief in her generation’s capabilities, Anotidaishe, who goes by Ano, envisions a world transformed by innovative solutions driven by youth. She believes her generation can tackle the planet’s toughest challenges when their creativity is unlocked. Inspired by the untapped potential within the community of young people in her hometown, she launched a science club that provides peer mentorship and exposure to national networks and opportunities, propelling students to participate in global science fairs like the Beijing Youth Science Creation Competition. The workshops she creates for her science club mix design thinking with decoding problems and storytelling. Ano looks forward to joining the Bezos Scholars cohort to sharpen the leadership tools she needs to turn local sparks into a continent‑wide fire while building strong connections along the way.
