A Distinguished Leader Dedicated to Empowerment and Global Impact

Dr. Sylvia LITANA Ezozo (Hon.) is a Zambian-born American nonprofit executive, entrepreneur and community leader whose professional journey spans organizational leadership, humanitarian engagement, entrepreneurship and African diaspora development.

Born in Ndola, Zambia, Dr. Ezozo pursued her studies in Office Management at Evelyn Hone College of Applied Arts and Commerce in Lusaka. After immigrating to the United States in 1995, she became actively involved in initiatives supporting the Zambian community and the wider African diaspora, helping promote cultural preservation, community participation and international connections.

Throughout her career, Dr. Ezozo has worked to strengthen institutions, encourage collaboration and advance initiatives that support communities and individuals across geographical and cultural boundaries.

She serves as Chairwoman of the African Diaspora Foundation (ADF), President and Chief Executive Officer of Aivlys Solutions USA Inc., and Global Director of Chapter Formation and Community Outreach for the African Diaspora Development Institute (ADDI).

Through these leadership positions, she contributes to initiatives involving community outreach, peace education, human rights awareness, nonviolence, international cooperation and the development of diaspora networks.

Her entrepreneurial work through Aivlys Solutions USA Inc. encompasses infrastructure development, project financing and business initiatives connected to African markets. Her broader professional experience includes organizational leadership, human resource development, mentorship and advocacy for women and young people.

Dr. Ezozo has also contributed to African cultural visibility and public engagement through her involvement with Africa Plus, a television programme serving audiences in the Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia region. Her community and cultural engagement has helped promote African identity, dialogue and connections between diaspora communities and their countries of origin.

An Honorary Award Recognising Leadership, Service and Community Contribution

The Clevenard Global Awards celebrate achievement, leadership, creativity and contributions that create meaningful value within communities and across international networks.

The honorary distinction to be presented to Dr. Ezozo will recognise her professional journey and commitment to community engagement, institutional leadership, African diaspora development and capacity-building initiatives.

Her previous recognitions include the African Diaspora Development Institute Leadership Award in 2021, the African Diaspora Development Institute Community Outreach and Leadership Award in 2022, and the African Diaspora Foundation Capacity Building Award in 2024.

These honours form part of a professional record shaped by leadership, service and a sustained interest in building stronger communities.

By recognising Dr. Ezozo at its 2027 international gathering, Clevenard seeks to celebrate the importance of individuals who use their experience, leadership and networks to encourage cooperation, expand opportunities and support positive social development.

Day 3 Keynote Address: Leadership, Diaspora Engagement and International Collaboration

On Thursday, 24 June 2027, Dr. Ezozo is scheduled to address participants during the Global Tourism & International Film Celebration, a programme dedicated to international connections through tourism, film, culture and creative expression.

Her keynote address will form part of the wider forum's engagement with leaders, entrepreneurs, cultural representatives and international delegates.

Her experience across nonprofit leadership, entrepreneurship and diaspora engagement provides a valuable foundation for dialogue around community development, international partnerships and the contribution of global networks to sustainable progress.

The address will precede the honorary award presentation on Day 4, giving delegates an opportunity to engage with Dr. Ezozo's leadership experience before the formal celebration of her achievements.
