Why Berlin?
The choice of Berlin as the venue holds profound historical significance. It was in Berlin, 140 years ago, that European powers convened to divide Africa during the infamous Berlin Conference of 1884-1885, an act that had far-reaching consequences for the continent. The RootsSynergy Conversation aims to transform the city from a symbol of division into a hub for re-union and collective empowerment.
