Two Iconic Cities. One Unforgettable Journey!

The National Bar Association is headed to Africa!
Join us April 21 – May 1, 2027, for the 2027 International Affiliates Meeting, an extraordinary journey through Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, and Monrovia, Liberia.

Experience the rich culture, history, and beauty of West Africa while connecting with legal professionals, accessing the business ecosystem, strengthening international relationships, and exploring opportunities for collaboration across the African diaspora.

From engaging CLE meetings and cultural experiences to historic landmarks and meaningful connections, this journey promises to be more than a meeting. It will be an experience to remember.

We’re thrilled to announce Stacey Abrams as the keynote speaker for the 37th Wiley A. Branton Issues Symposium Award Luncheon!

This year’s theme, “Vote! Your Life Depends On It!”, reflects both the enduring legacy of legendary civil rights attorney Wiley A. Branton and the urgency of this moment.

As threats to voting access continue to evolve, so must the strategies, advocacy, and legal leadershipneeded to confront them. Join the National Bar Association October 15–17, 2026, in Atlanta, Georgia, as we honor Branton’s legacy and engage in critical conversations about voting, democracy, justice, and the power of civic participation.

We look forward to welcoming Stacey Abrams—political leader, business owner, and New York Times bestselling author—as our keynote speaker for this important occasion.
