WHAT IS AFRICA SUMMIT ?
Warwick Africa Summit is a student-organised interdisciplinary conference focused on the development of the African continent, with an aim to celebrate the continent’s future as well as its economic growth. The event aims to draw from a pool of industry leaders with a wealth of knowledge of the region. We present a platform to address the different challenges faced by the continent through the multidisciplinary keynote speeches and panels on Human and Economic Development, Innovation, Governance, and Culture and History.
