A short Bio of Ada Ugo Abara.
I was born in Nigeria and raised in a small town in Northern Italy. I obtained my BA in Political Sciences, International Relations and Human Rights at the University of Padova, then I completed my MSc in Development, Cooperation and Innovation in the Global Economy at the University of Turin back in 2017.
In 2015 I founded the association Arising Africans (www.arisingafricans.it) and started deconstructing stereotypes and promoting cultural awareness on black Italy and diasporas in Europe. Amongst our projects, we realized a short movie titled “Io sono Rosa Parks” that premiered at the Venice Film Festival in 2018 and we are now promoting 8 spots on systemic racism called “Fading”.
I am a project management and implementation consultant working with different public and private entities. My latest challenge is becoming an expert of Information and Communication Technologies for Social Good. I am combining both theory and practice: I work with innovative startups, deepen my studies and focus on D-Tech Podcast (www.dtech4good.com), my latest podcasting project on digital transformation for-profit and nonprofit organizations and youth entrepreneurs.
