The theme of the first ever forum is “Empowering Women and Youths to Spur Africa’s Transformation Agenda”.

The theme of the first ever forum is “Empowering Women and Youths to Spur Africa’s Transformation Agenda”.

With Africa being the youngest continent and a projection of Africans constituting a whooping quarter of the world’s labour force by 2050 due to high fertility and declining child mortality rates, it has become imperative to pivot the continent’s demographic dynamics for sustainable development.
Special guests of honour are Mrs Zainab Shamsuna Ahmed Nigeria’s honourable minister of finance and Dr Vera Songwe, Under Secretary General and ECA Executive Secretary.

The forum is an initiative of the sub regional Office for West Africa of ECA in partnership with Compass Global Business Services, working with a host of Coalition Partners, such as the International Trade Centre, International Labour Office, ECOWAS, Organization of Trade Unions of West Africa, Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Neca’s Network of Entrepreneurial Women, Association of
