Palma de Mallorca, Spain — The Clevenard Media Award 2025, an international celebration of visionary leadership and transformative excellence, is coming for the first time to the picturesque city of Palma de Mallorca, Spain. Scheduled for Friday, November 21, 2025, this event will spotlight pioneers and changemakers in entertainment, entrepreneurship, fashion, innovation, leadership, and community development — with nominees traveling from across Africa, Europe, the Caribbean, and the diaspora.

Among the highly respected honorees is Dr. Olubunmi Onome Alabi, MBBS, FWACP, FC Paed (SA) — nominated in the prestigious category of Diaspora Health Leadership & Community Impact.

  • Education & Youth Mentorship: Providing guidance and support to young people across the diaspora.
  • Women’s Development: Promoting gender equity, female leadership, and economic empowerment.
