With a background in Development Studies, he has designed public campaigns that mobilised over 15 million digital impressions and led to policy shifts on corruption, environmental safety, and justice reform. Prince has worked with the Office of the Prime Minister, ministries, and parliamentarians to institutionalise participatory governance. He has been recognised by the UNDP, the ICT Foundation, and the Kofi Annan Foundation, and has been featured in The New York Times and a number of national media outlets.
