36 Million Solutions Summit
ROLE: Executive Producer
CLIENT: Amahoro Coalition / United Nations
YEAR: 2021
LOCATION: Kigali, Rwanda
The brief from clients The Amahoro Coaltion and the UN was clear: create something that’s never been seen on the continent. Disarm our guests.
The 36 Million Solutons Summit brought together 400 of the world’s CEO’s and senior executives with the goal of solidifying corporate commitments to solving the refugee crisis in Africa. 36 million people are displaced on the continent- fleeing from war, famine, industry - with many in refugee camps.
Daniel Noake worked with Addis Ababa based Flawless events to conceptualize and design the event. The team conceived a design language built around the concept of a tree - with the stage itself built on ‘roots’ upon which speakers and panels discussed the challenges of the refugee crisis. Behind them, a canopy filled with hundred of lanterns slowly illuminated as financial commitments were made during the event.
