“What do you wish someone had told you when you were starting out?”

Women who have led governments, built businesses or organized movements bring lessons that rarely make it into a leadership biography. Emerging leaders bring experiences and ideas of their own. What can they learn from each other, and what would they do differently?That’s the conversation AWLN is bringing to Lomé!

Join the African Women Leaders Network for its 8th Intergenerational Retreat, under the theme “Championing Africa’s Emerging Women Leaders.”

Through mentorship circles and hands-on masterclasses, emerging and established women leaders will share what they’ve learned and explore how more young women can shape decisions in their communities and countries.

Their exchanges will inform the proposed Lomé Roadmap for Emerging Women Leaders, with commitments to sustain mentorship and collaboration and expand young women’s access to decision-making after the retreat.

📍 Lomé, Togo 🇹🇬
📅 11-13 December 2026
