The Crans Montana Forum, with the WDA World Diplomatic Academy, has announced the creation of a Supreme Council of African Royals in partnership with His Royal Majesty Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, Asantehene of Ashanti Kingdom.

Supported by prominent international figures such as HRH Prince Jean de Nassau, Prince de Luxembourg, and Rev. Jesse Jackson, the Supreme Council aims to unite Indigenous African leaders in addressing political, social, and economic challenges across the continent.

By integrating the wisdom and influence of traditional rulers into modern governance structures, the Council will foster inclusive governance, sustainable development, and cross-cultural collaboration.

The initiative’s first strategic meeting is scheduled for November 15-16, 2024, in Geneva, with an official launch in Kumasi, Ghana, in April 2025.
