Founder of Study Sustainability Hub, Sustainability News Africa, and the Leaps and Heights Foundation, Enoch also serves as ESG Advisory Lead at Leaps and Heights Service Limited-UK, advancing sustainability education and impact across Africa.
Reflecting on the award, India said: “Receiving an Alumni Award means more than I could ever fully express. I never imagined that an educational organisation would see value in my voice, my work, or the paths I’ve taken. It makes me feel seen, appreciated and genuinely proud.”
For Mohamed, winning the award is more than a personal milestone. “Receiving an Alumni Award is incredibly meaningful to me not just as a personal milestone but also as a recognition of a journey that started at the University and has taken me into global spaces of climate action, innovation and youth leadership.”
Enoch, who earned a full tuition scholarship for his MBA studies at the Management School, said: “This award is not only about the recognition, though I am eternally grateful for it, but also serves as my return-on-investment receipt to the University for the many responsible business values and principles instilled in me.”
Now in its fifth year, the Alumni Awards has been honouring the remarkable achievements of our diverse, global community since 2019.
This year’s awarding ceremony was held at the Victoria Gallery & Museum on Thursday 25 September 2025.
