This WTCA global event is significant as it will bring together leaders from around the world to discuss strategic policies for growth and trade.
This will be the first worldwide meeting of the World Trade Center Association in Africa.
The webisode "The Adventures of Zizwe," created by Robyn Stalson, will be screened at the 53rd General Assembly of the World Trade Center Association in Accra, Ghana on April 25, 2023. This series recently won an IndieFEST award for "Use of Film for Social Change".
