Africa Now Conference 2020
One of the ways the organization is creating spaces for common challenges to be discussed and for solutions to be shared is through their upcoming conference. Before the pandemic, the conference was to focus on environmental sustainability. Conversation around the common (COVID-19) challenge has been added to the agenda. We will taking part in the conference which will be happening virtually this weekend - 30th and 31st May, 2020.
Play your part
There are a lot of virtual events - conference, concerts, webinars - happening to celebrate this day. The weight of the current pandemic can make us think about the common challenges more than the things we can celebrate. As discussed on the show with the Africa Now officials, it is easy to say no to many things at this time. It is ok to give yourself a break but do not isolate yourself. There is strength is positive community and if you are looking for one, we look forward to meeting you this weekend at the conference.
