It brings together over 350 delegates from more than 53 countries to examine social, political and cultural paradigms, find solidarity in each other’s work, and be inspired by ongoing efforts to create positive social change. This year the forum will take place in London from 16-18 April. Keynote speakers include: Ben Okri, Faiza Shaheen, Babatunde Fashola, Evan Davis, Dave Archambault.

The themes for the Forum are: Inclusion, Justice and Accountability.
