The year 2020 has emerged as the most redefining moment for Associations not only in Africa but across the world. The Covid-19 pandemic, has not only changed how associations conduct their business activities, but also redefined the way these activities will be conducted into the future. In the post-Covid-19 pandemic world, it is only those Associations that demonstrate agility and adaptability that will survive.

There is no doubt that the pandemic has created unprecedented disruptions resulting in the restructuring of Associations’ leadership and governance structures; redesigning of membership communications and engagement; revision of revenue models; and remodeling of association events among others. Associations beyond 2020 will definitely look different.

The AfSAE virtual Africa Association Summit (AAS2) is organised to dissect the do’s and don’ts while offering opinion on what a successful Association need to be doing now in anticipation of tomorrow.

This virtual event will be highlighting the ever-important role of associations in our communities by focusing on the following thematic areas:

1. Strategy
2. Governance/Leadership
3. Engagement/Membership
4. Communications
5. Collaborations/Stakeholders/partnerships/Mergers
6. Events
7. Financial Sustainability
8. Technology
