Women in Development Summit
Women in Development Summit
In 2018, we started Women in Development Summit for women who work for social good and global development across the African continent

Speakers
The Summit featured Keynote Speeches, Panel Sessions, Mentorship Roundtable and Open Conversations – providing a great opportunity for women to understand the dynamics of the development sector, learn about women-focused opportunities and gain expert advice for their work. At the Summit, we also award Social Innovators who are under 25 years of age, working to impact their communities.
