The Africa Women Leaders Summit & Awards 2026 is an empowering platform dedicated to recognizing and advancing women’s leadership across all sectors. This summit aims to transcend the traditional narrative of women’s empowerment, fostering a deeper conversation on the evolving roles of women as decision-makers, innovators, and leaders in today’s world.
Despite historical contributions to society and leadership, women continue to be underrepresented in key positions across industries. Globally, only 6% of women hold leadership roles, a figure that worsened during the pandemic. This summit seeks to address that gap, not just by celebrating past achievements, but by actively shaping the future of women’s leadership.

Building on the success of the Women Leaders Summits in the Africa, the Africa Women Leaders Summit & Awards will bring together distinguished women from diverse fields—business, politics, technology, healthcare, and more—to share their journeys, challenges, and triumphs. These leaders will provide invaluable insights into the evolving landscape of women’s leadership and the bold steps necessary to continue breaking barriers. A movement that celebrates the new-age leadership paradigm—one that is collaborative, inclusive, and disruptive. By creating a thriving ecosystem where women can share, learn, and grow together, the summit aims to ignite the next generation of women leaders who will drive change, challenge conventions, and reshape the future.
Join us at the Africa Women Leaders Summit & Awards 2026, where the power of women’s leadership is recognized, celebrated, and amplified.
