Deadline: April 30, 2026Detected Apr 22

Suggested angles

Frame a presentation around how women journalists in African media organizations are implementing economic sustainability strategies—positioning this as directly relevant to the 'Economics' pillar of the conference theme and addressing the continent-specific focus in Namibia

Propose research or case studies on women's pathways to editorial leadership roles in media governance structures, tying directly to how institutional decision-making power translates to broader governance influence outlined in the conference theme

Develop an abstract examining the intersection of women's media ownership/entrepreneurship and political influence in African markets, addressing all three conference pillars (media, economics, governance) while leveraging the regional expertise expected for an Africa-focused audience

Submit an abstract that connects women's leadership specifically within African media ecosystems to economic independence and institutional power—this conference values region-specific insights over general global frameworks.
