As stakeholders convened for the 26th Nigerian Economic Summit (NES #26), the unprecedented turmoil unleashed by the global COVID-19 pandemic and the aftermath of the #EndSARS protests by Nigerian youth was paramount in their minds.

The theme of the Summit, “Building Partnerships for Resilience”, was considered to be appropriate in shaping the big conversation for action.
