Ghana will host the maiden edition of the Impact Africa Summit on Thursday July 7, 2016 at the Tang Palace Hotel in Accra.

The Impact Africa Summit; founded on the principles of the hope of seeing a New Africa for Africans and the World as well as  celebrating the new phase of the African continent; “a continent changing the dynamics of the world, a continent with a budding economic and political growth and a continent with an expanding knowledge base” would be a “country specific event” making “stops” from one African country to the other.

The summit would tell the story of the “New African Personality”, described by the summit’s working guidelines as an assured African or Non – African, confident in Africa, at home in Africa, and the world at large, who is or has exerted a positive impact on the development agenda of the continent.

The Impact Africa Summit: Ghana will thus bring together representatives from the Government, Political Parties, Diplomatic Community, Academia, Civil Society Organizations, Heads of Local and Foreign Businesses, Foreign Investors, Media and a host of others to champion the course of the summit with Ghana in perspective.

The high profile delegates congregating at the summit would also celebrate and award some personalities of the land who have created an impact in the country in the fields of “Leadership & Governance, Education, Media and Communications, Health, as well as Business and Entrepreneurship”.

The July 7 scheduled summit would create a platform for a solemn discussion on the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals in Ghana and the prospects of the goals for the African continent as a whole in ending poverty, fighting inequality and injustice, and tackling climate change by 2030.
