The Mo Ibrahim Governance Weekend is held every year in a different African country.

This year at the three-day event in Abidjan, prominent African leaders in politics, business, civil society come together to debate and discuss the issues facing Africa in 2019.

It begins with a Leadership Ceremony which this year will celebrate the life of former UN Secretary-General and great African leader, Kofi Annan.

The main event is the Ibrahim Forum, a high-level discussion to tackle emerging challenges in Africa and set priorities to address them. This year, the Forum is focused on African migrations.

See the Facebook event for live updates and web streams.

Highlights of the event from Kigali, Rwanda, including the Leadership Ceremony celebrating the 2017 laureate, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.
