TORREMOLINOS, MÁLAGA, SPAIN — 5 OCTOBER 2026 — Clevenard is pleased to announce the appointment of Olivia Bolah, LLB, B.L., MA (Law) as an Advisory Ambassador of the Clevenard Open Project 2027, taking place from 22–25 June 2027 at the Palacio de Congresos de Torremolinos, Málaga, Spain.

Olivia Bolah is a British-Nigerian scholar, multi-genre author, academic lawyer, researcher, thought leader and transformational agent whose work spans more than three decades. Her professional and academic interests encompass migration, human security, social justice, governance, sustainable development, human behaviour, culture and African diaspora development.

Her appointment further strengthens Clevenard's growing International Ambassadorial Programme, bringing valuable academic, legal, literary and international development expertise to the organisation's global platform.

A LEADER CONNECTING LAW, MIGRATION, SCHOLARSHIP AND HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

Olivia was admitted as a Solicitor and Barrister of the Supreme Court of Nigeria in 1992 and holds a Master's degree in Migration and Law from Queen Mary University of London.

Her academic and professional work has engaged with important international issues including migration, governance, human security, social inclusion, gender justice, sustainable development and the experiences of diaspora communities.

Olivia is a member of the World Association for Sustainable Development (WASD) and ASEN. She is a regular presenter at The Migration Conference, a major international interdisciplinary gathering focused on migration research, and has presented and served as a rapporteur at the United Nations in Geneva.

Her migration scholarship engages particularly with Sustainable Development Goal Target 10.7, which focuses on safe, orderly, regular and responsible migration and mobility.

She also serves as a rapporteur contributing to international policy dialogue and documentation involving WASD and the United Nations Joint Inspection Unit in Geneva.

AUTHOR, SCHOLAR AND VOICE FOR DIASPORA DIALOGUE

Alongside her academic and legal work, Olivia is a multi-genre author whose writing spans fiction and non-fiction.

Her work demonstrates a distinctive interest in human behaviour and the lived experiences that shape individuals and communities, particularly within families, relationships, migration, culture and evolving diaspora identities.

As a member of the Black Writers' Guild in the UK, Olivia brings together scholarship, lived experience, cultural understanding and social observation to explore complex questions of human behaviour and human experience.

Her work seeks to illuminate experiences that often remain unspoken, challenge assumptions and encourage meaningful conversations across cultures and communities.

Olivia is also committed to strengthening connections within the African diaspora and is affiliated with Initiatives of Change UK. She is the Founder and Director of the Reinvent African Diaspora Network (RADET), an educational platform focused on socio-economic empowerment, cultural identity and dialogue within diaspora communities.

HER ROLE AS ADVISORY AMBASSADOR

As an Advisory Ambassador of the Clevenard Open Project 2027, Olivia will contribute her international experience, academic knowledge and multidisciplinary perspective to Clevenard's global platforms.

Her role will support dialogue, strategic engagement and meaningful connections between institutions, professionals, researchers, communities and international stakeholders.

Her areas of contribution will include:

• Human security and social justice
• Migration and diaspora affairs
• Law, governance and public policy
• Sustainable development and the SDGs
• Gender equality and social inclusion
• African diaspora development
• Education, research and knowledge exchange
• Human behaviour and social transformation
• Ethical and transformational leadership
• International cooperation
• Community resilience and human development

Through her role, Olivia will have opportunities to contribute to Clevenard's international programmes and help advance conversations that connect people, knowledge, institutions, ideas and opportunities across borders.

CONTINUING THE CLEVEnARD CONNECTION

Olivia Bolah was previously recognised by Clevenard as a distinguished honouree of the Clevenard Global Authors' Recognition 2026, held in Alicante, Spain.

Her recognition reflected her contributions as an author, academic lawyer, researcher and advocate whose work engages with important international questions surrounding migration, gender inequality, globalisation, human security, social inclusion and Africa's development potential.

Her appointment as an Advisory Ambassador represents a natural continuation of that relationship and opens a new chapter of collaboration between Olivia and Clevenard.

From recognition of her contribution as an author and scholar to her new role within Clevenard's International Ambassadorial Programme, the relationship reflects Clevenard's commitment to creating long-term connections with distinguished individuals whose work contributes to global dialogue and human development.
