We started off the year with an immensely successful Shaping Davos in Accra that allowed us to collaborate with government officials, local businessmen and stake holders in our community. Our monthly Accra Discourse has been instrumental in garnering 1000+ community members over the past 15 months. We will continue engaging, inspiring and highlighting the collaborative projects that have come out of the Accra Discourse for potential investment and deeper involvement.

An initiative we started last year Sesamu which means “change inside” is a series of disruptive and innovative community programs in tandem with Welfare committee in team building and supporting individual Shaper give-back projects that foster goodwill and collaborative success. I will be curating an active events calendar that allows the hub support individual projects and camaraderie in achieving common goals that impact positively. www.weforum.org ¦¦ www.globalshapers.org
