The historical and cultural ties between Africa and the Caribbean form the foundation of a shared legacy of resilience, innovation, and leadership. Despite geographic separation, these two regions face similar socio-economic challenges and opportunities in governance, trade, investment, climate resilience, and human capital development. As global economic and political dynamics shift, there is a growing need for stronger partnerships, knowledge-sharing, and collaborative leadership between Africa and the Caribbean.
In a world increasingly defined by interconnected challenges and opportunities, the African and Caribbean diaspora stands as a beacon of resilience, innovation, and cultural richness. To celebrate this shared heritage and foster collaboration, the International Forum on African-Caribbean Leadership (IFAL) 2025 and the Afro-Caribbean Public Service Leadership Awards will convene in New York City, USA, bringing together leaders, policymakers, and change-makers from across the globe.

Inspired by the African Leadership Organisation’s model of multi-stakeholder collaboration, IFAL 2025 will explore how African and Caribbean leadership can drive sustainable development, foster cultural exchange, and shape global agendas.
The African and Caribbean diaspora has long been a source of transformative leadership, from politics and business to arts and academia. IFAL 2025 will celebrate this legacy while addressing the unique challenges and opportunities facing these regions.
