The Bold New Normal Conference 2023

A bold new Africa where self-actualisation and prosperity are possible because the right opportunities exist for all.

It is a new normal because it will mean that mindsets have shifted and we no longer accept the status quo for Africa. It is bold because it will require a fundamental shift in how we view ourselves and each other collectively. It is a place where each person has a real opportunity to realize their potential. It is an Africa where we are proud of what we see around us every day!

The bold new normal Africa is food secure; no one goes to bed hungry. She delivers high quality education to all children. High quality healthcare covers everyone in a combination of traditional and western medicine. Industries are thriving and Africans prefer their own goods and services so every adult able to work is gainfully employed.

In this Africa there are no street children. All children are happily enjoying their childhood. The disadvantaged in society receive justice: fair support and care.

The societies have transparent accountable inclusive leaders who empathetically prioritize the needs of the people and thus set an example for all citizens to emulate. They serve with love and humility.

Lucy Quist’s vision of The Bold New Normal Conference is centred on engaging young people across Africa and the diaspora to lead the charge for change.

Lucy is embarking on the second annual Bold New Normal Conference. The conference is the foremost platform for young people to gather and engage in bold conversations about their lives, communities, countries and continent.

The conference will continue to actively participate in shaping conversations and co-creating an economically-empowered continent that supports the ambitions of its people, especially young people.

Our pledge for this conference is to each create an action plan and start taking action in order to create our own prosperity. Here are highlights of the last conference: Recapping the Bold New Normal Conference 2022! Here are the highlights!

Leveraging Opportunity: Taking action to focus on delivering prosperous outcomes with a changed mindset.

Participants will learn from the examples of presenters and engage in a specially curated masterclass hosted by Lucy.

They will be empowered and inspired to create their own action plans. They will identify accountability partners. Most importantly, they will leave with a shift in mindset to execute their plans.

The conference is open to all with a reinforced target of students in tertiary education and professionals in early to mid-career. It is also the right place for anyone who feels that they have not been able to create the outcomes they want for their lives – regardless of their age and level in their career.
