All Africa Conference History



The African Forum - Tunisia 2022 will hold its third meeting in Hammamet, Tunisia, from October 20th to 23, 2022. The historical All Africa Conference changed its name to Africa Forum after Africa becoming the 8th Constitutional area. The last All Africa Conference was held in Morocco in 2018. The ALL AFRICA Conference (AAC) was the initiative of Past International Director, Julian Musikanth of District 410 – South Africa, who served from 1987 to 1989. The objectives of the AAC was to:

  • Unite African lions with a common goal of growing membership in Africa;
  • Increase the number of service projects especially sight-related projects;
  • Enhance the visibility of Lionism in Africa; and
  • Champion the creation of a constitutional area on the African Continent.


Since then, succeeding International Directors (IDs) have continued to build on and host All Africa Conferences, namely:

  • Past International Director Ashpoll Kapoor (Kenya) (1993/1995);
  • Past International Director S.P Amin (Kenya) (2001/2003);
  • Past International Director Manoj Shah (Kenya) (2005/2007);
  • Past International Director H.O. B. Lawal (Nigeria) (2009/2011);
  • Past International Director Alexis Gomès (Congo-Brazzaville) (2015/2017); and
  • International Director Hastings Eli Chiti (Zambia) (2017/2019)..
