The Voice of Women Conference & Awards will hold its 8th Annual Edition tagged VOW2024 on Thursday, October 3 at the NAF Conference Centre in Abuja, Nigeria.
Chairperson, VOW2024 Planning Committee, Dr. Abiola Akiyode-Afolabi announced this in a statement sent to Daily Sun.
With the theme, “Achieving Women’s Inclusion for a Sustainable Nigeria,” this year’s conference will host grassroots and urban women in constructive conversations on the crucial roles of grassroots women in achieving inclusive policies that drive sustainable development for women in Nigeria.
According to the organisers, this year’s theme was inspired by feedback received from physical engagements with grassroots women across the 6 geopolitical zones.
Akiyode-Afolabi added that the theme has brought to fore the missing link between policy and action and the conference looks beyond the present envisioning a future of progress.
She noted that VOW2024 will prioritise results-driven approaches to foster a future of progress by tapping into innovative ideas and policy interventions.
She further stated that VOW Conference has set the standard for promoting and protecting women’s rights in Nigeria, becoming a marketplace for ideas and policy innovation, with a unique influence on the policy landscape.
The conference will host keynote addresses, panel discussions, fireside chats and networking opportunities for women from diverse backgrounds in business, politics, civil society, and academia, as well as community leaders, activists, and individuals passionate about inclusive policymaking.
VOW has established itself as a leading platform for amplifying women’s voices in business, leadership, and social impact.
The Voice of Women Conference & Awards (VOW) is an annual conference of diverse women groups in business, politics, civil society and academia who converge to discuss and proffer solutions on critical issues of national development organised by Voice of Women Empowerment Foundation in partnership with Women Radio 91.7FM.
