Young Women Conference 2026
ABOUT THE YOUNG WOMEN CONFERENCE
The Young Women Conference is put in place by the Double Edged Impact Network to help rally more young women in Africa to the awareness of the limitless potential in them and to equip them with the right information, knowledge, resources, and connections to get started and continue in that journey.
Whether you’re a student, a recent graduate, an aspiring entrepreneur/career woman, early stage entrepreneur/career woman, or simply looking to level up your personal and professional life, the Young Women Conference has something for you.
At the conference, you’ll have the opportunity to:
Connect with like-minded young women who share your aspirations and goals
Learn from experienced and successful professionals in various industries
Gain practical skills and strategies to take your career or business to the next level
Get motivated to pursue your dreams fearlessly and confidently
Expand your network and build valuable connections
Every March, as part of the global commemoration of International Women’s Day (March 8), we come together not just to talk about challenges, but to find solutions, grow stronger, and celebrate the power of positive femininity.

2026 Conference Details:
Theme: Made For More
📅 Date: Saturday, 28th March 2026
🕘 Time: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
📍 Location: University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Enugu State, Nigeria
Why the theme, “Made For More”?
"Made for More" is not merely a motivational phrase. It is a theological, philosophical, and deeply personal declaration that speaks to the innate design and unlimited potential within every young woman.
The theme emerges from a recognition that too many young women today are living below their full potential, not because they lack ability, but because they have been shaped by cultures, upbringing, environments, experiences, and internal narratives that have convinced them to settle. To settle for less than they deserve in life. To aim below their true capacity in their career and business pursuits. To stay silent when they should lead. To keep giving without ever truly investing in themselves.
"Made for More" is a direct challenge to that culture of settling. It challenges every young woman to do away with mediocrity and step out of their comfort zone.
If you believe you are made for more, then we invite you to be part of this transformative experience.
