Seventeen Years of Trailblazing Leadership.

The AWLO 17th Anniversary Induction & Partners Appreciation Dinner is a prestigious black-tie event honouring the women who have shaped the continent’s leadership landscape, and the partners and patrons who have championed this mission.

From our first convening in Accra in 2009 to our presence across four continents today, this evening is a celebration of legacy, impact, and the bold next chapter of African women’s leadership.

New members will be formally inducted into the AWLO family. Long-standing partners and sponsors will be honoured. And the evening will close with an unforgettable gala dinner.
