Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, will be delivering the keynote address at this year’s London School of Economics (LSE) Africa summit.
His address is themed “Artificial Intelligence and Unifying Borders in Africa.”
The event is scheduled to take place on Saturday, March 28.
The LSE Africa Summit is an annual student-led conference that promotes debate around the continent’s contemporary challenges and opportunities.
The Summit gathers renowned scholars, leading politicians, change-makers, activists and forward-thinking entrepreneurs to provide a unique platform for sharing ideas and nurturing relationships that translate into meaningful action.
The LSE Africa Summit is the biggest event of its kind in Europe.
First established by LSE in students in 2014, the founders of the Summit created the event to overturn narratives of the continent as diseased, hungry and underdeveloped.
This ethos speaks to understanding Africa as a diverse region best articulated by those on the continent, which includes both the influential and the marginalised.
The two-day conference has since earned a reputation for promoting afro-centric scholarship and exploring issues critically, in response to a rapidly evolving continent.
