WOMEN ACHIEVERS

CONFERENCE & AWARDS 2026

29th - 31st July, BOMAS OF KENYA

THEME: WOMEN'S LEADERSHIP IN AFRICA: UPSCALING THE ROLE OF WOMEN IN AFRICA'S DEVELOPMENT.

Africa is at a critical juncture in its development journey. Despite progress, women remain under-represented in decision-making, innovation ecosystems, and climate leadership. WACA 2026 responds to this gap by positioning women not as beneficiaries, but as core architects and decision-makers in Africa’s socio-economic and political transformation.
