The Okyenhene, His Royal Majesty, Osagyefuo Amoatia Ofori Panin, will attend the inaugural Traditional Leadership and Sustainable Development Forum at the University of Bradford, UK, on 12 September 2024. The high-profile event will also be attended by prominent personalities, including university and faculty leadership, academics, students, the president and members of the Ghana Union Bradford, the Ghanaian Students' Union in Bradford, and business leaders, among others. He has been invited to deliver a keynote speech at the event on the theme, "The Role of Traditional Leaders in Achieving Sustainable Development in Africa."
The invitation was extended to the Okyenhene by Professor Richard Nyuur, the Lead Convenor of the Leadership and Sustainable Development Forum and Head of the International Business, Marketing, and Strategy Department in the School of Management, University of Bradford. Ranked among the top 25 Business Schools in Europe for producing start-up companies, and in the top 1% of Business Schools in the world to hold the prestigious "triple crown of accreditation" title, the School of Management places a premium on raising "responsible global leaders" who can champion the cause of development across all spheres of enterprise. The University of Bradford School of Management recognises the significant role that traditional leaders play in achieving sustainable development, hence the invitation to the Okyenhene.
