The Aspire Coronation Trust (ACT) Foundation Breakfast Dialogue is a convergence of various Public, Private, and Social Sector leaders to have insightful conversations on global social issues with the aim of exploring solutions that will propel social transformation, and create impact in communities.
Since inception, ACT Breakfast Dialogue has provided a multi-stakeholder platform to build relationships and leverage on core knowledge, skills and assets to scale development efforts across the African continent.
At this year’s Breakfast Dialogue, ACT Foundation seeks to mobilise technology to address the rising negative impacts and setbacks of the pandemic on vulnerable populations and Africa’s overall growth and development.
The 2020 Breakfast Dialogue is themed “Tech for Good: Fostering Social Innovation and Digital Investments for Transformative Change’’. The dialogue seeks to encourage cross-fertilisation of ideas across different sectors and spark collective action required to bridge Africa’s digital divide, deliver urgent impact, foster innovation and frame long-term strategies towards more resilient and prosperous communities across Africa.
