Africa Soft Power (ASP) is delighted to announce that BellaNaija has been named as an official media partner at this year’s Africa Soft Power Summit, which takes place next month. Like ASP and our sister-organisation, African Women on Board (AWB), BellaNaija is committed to leveraging the power of media and tech to drive positive change and celebrate progress, across its significant lifestyle and advocacy platforms, and we couldn’t have asked for a better media partner at this year’s event!
The Summit, which this year also includes the inaugural RAW Women’s Leadership Conference, will take place from May 23rd – 27th, and you can find out further details here.
