You’re invited to join Hogan Lovells & the Great Green Wall Frontline team on a music-driven journey across Africa’s Great Green Wall. A panel discussion will demonstrate how you can become involved in this wildly ambitious movement, featuring Malian musician and climate activist, Inna Modja.

The film screening (produced by MAKE Waves) will be preceded by a discussion on the opportunities to engage and invest in the ambitious project chaired by:

  • Andrew Skipper, Partner and Head of the Africa Practice, Hogan Lovells and Co-Chair of UK Government’s Africa Investors Group; 
  • Inna Modja, Singer and Artist;
  • BNP Paribas, (TBC);
  • H.E. Josefa Leonel Correia Sacko, AU Commissioner for Rural Economy and Agriculture;
  • Kemo Fatty, Head of Community Engagement, Civic & Founder, Green Up Gambia; and
