MIPAD 100 is a global civil society initiative to support the implementation of the United Nations General Assembly Decade for People of African Descent.

The initiative publishes a unique global 100 list that identifies outstanding individuals of African descent worldwide, bringing together those in the diaspora with their counterparts in Africa in four categories: politics & governance, business & entrepreneurship, media & culture, and humanitarian & religious.

Past winners include Kenya’s acclaimed journalist Larry Madowo, South African comedian Trevor Noah, Beyonce, Lewis Hamilton, Uasin Bolt, Naomi Osaka and many more.

During the week-long gathering in Los Angeles, activities will include panel discussions, a leadership training workshop and a film screening at UN Headquarters.

Musau has become one of the world’s most recognised mentalists, combining lie detection, mind reading, control, and influence.
