Penpushing reports that the Chairperson Planning Committee Dr. Abiola Akiyode-Afolabi made this known in a statement adding that the theme for this year’s conference is, “Achieving Women’s Inclusion for a Sustainable Nigeria”.
The Chairperson said the conference will host grassroots and urban women in constructive conversations on the crucial roles of grassroots women in achieving inclusive policies that drive sustainable development for women in Nigeria.
Penpushing further reports that Akiyode-Afolabi explained that the theme of the conference was inspired by feedback received from physical engagements with grassroots women across the 6 geopolitical zones.

The statement added that the conference will host keynote addresses, panel discussions, fireside chats and networking opportunities for women from diverse backgrounds in business, politics, civil society, and academia, as well as community leaders, activists, and individuals passionate about inclusive policymaking.
Penpushing reports that she said Voice of Women Empowerment Foundation is in partnership with Women Radio 91.7FM and has established itself as a leading platform for amplifying women’s voices in business, leadership, and social impact.
