IWFSA Conference
South African women in leadership have heeded the call to be the change they want to see in the world. In celebration of 20 years of democracy in South Africa, the International Women's Forum of South Africa (IWFSA) will convene an IWFSA conference on 18-19 June 2014 at the Sandton Convention Centre. This forms part of the Africa Women's Decade (continent wide) activities and will expose African women leaders to IWF prior to the IWF Global Cornerstone Conference in 2015 also hosted by IWFSA
The theme Africa Rising: Setting an inclusive agenda recognises Africa's recent growth. The idea of the conference is to unpack the rise of Africa and direct conversation towards setting an inclusive agenda to expand and sustain gains towards addressing the Sub Saharan current issues
The African perspective will be showcased by some outstanding speakers. Ms Gill Marcus, South African Reserve Bank Governor, Botswana's Reserve Bank Governor Ms Linah Mohohlo and Nigerian Finance Minister Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala will participate in a panel discussion unpacking Africa's growth. Other speakers include: Honourable Minister Naledi Pandor (Minister of Home Affairs) Ms Tryphosa Ramano (CFO PPC), Ms Irene Charnley (Founder and CEO Smile Communication), Ms Bridgitte Radebe and Ms Geraldine Fraser-Moleketi (Africa Development Bank)
Former President Thabo Mbeki will deliver a keynote address on peace and development in Africa.
