African Liberty’s Big Shine at The Antigua Forum 2016. See Exclusive pictures

The Antigua Forum is an exclusive, annual gathering of political reformers and entrepreneurs from around the world who believe in the power of human ingenuity and free enterprise to dramatically improve the well-being of people everywhere. The Antigua Forum 2016 brought 61 reformers from 19 countries together over three days of brainstorming, genuinely creating effective solutions to specific national problems, networking, short presentations, spontaneous disorderliness amongst other realities that essentially makes the Antigua Forum the primus inter pares amongst international forums and conferences in terms of how it makes use of the people to work through an intentional and strategic process that has helped to create solutions in several countries over the last 4 years. Its editor, Japheth J. Omojuwa, represented African Liberty at this year’s Antigua Forum.

Omojuwa not only gave a presentation on how to better use the media to communicate the ideas of development and liberty, he was directly involved with about 6 projects of the 10 on offer and made inputs into two more. It was a full participation that ensured Africa was ably represented despite having just one representative. You can see pictures from the Antigua Forum below through African Liberty’s contribution to this year’s forum. African Liberty has Tom Palmer, Vice President at ATLAS to thank for the opportunity, Wayne  Leighton (Executive Director and CEO Antigua Forum), Arthur Chait (President) and Ana Lucia Solorzano all made our representation and participation possible and worth the while.
