The Women in Geopolitics Debate Series is a high-level dialogue platform that convenes former diplomats, policy experts, political leaders, scholars, and practitioners to examine Africa’s geopolitical positioning within an increasingly complex global order.

​The series is designed to amplify women’s voices in international affairs, deepen strategic and geopolitical literacy, and equip African women with the analytical tools necessary to influence policy, governance, peace, and security at the highest levels.

​Structured into thematic Seasons, each composed of weekly debate sessions, the programme explores critical continental issues through sharp analysis, expert perspectives, and informed dialogue.

​This platform empowers African women to:

​• Understand and interpret global power dynamics

​• Participate in high-level geopolitical dialogue

​• Influence public policy and governance

​• Strengthen Africa’s voice in international decision-making

​Building on the momentum of the successful G20 Series, the December edition marks the official launch of Season 1 of the Women in Geopolitics Programme.

This season examines the African Union’s institutional strengths, governance challenges, diplomatic presence, and future role in global power dynamics.

​Speakers are invited from across Africa’s diplomatic, governance, academic, and thought-leadership communities.
