ABOUT
The Black Policy Conference was born in 2005 out of the desire to facilitate an open exchange of ideas for the most current issues affecting Black communities globally. As we look back to those who led policy shifts throughout the Black diaspora and within Africa we learn from their triumphs as well as their challenges.
