Commenting on this partnership, Ekow Quandzie, Head of Public Relations at Global Media Alliance highlighted the relevance of music in shaping narratives and inspiring a new generation of communicators.

In accordance with this year's theme for the World PR Day celebration, 'The Future of PR in a Changing World,' our curated playlists reflect the evolving landscape of both music and public relations,” said Ekow Quandzie.

The World PR Day Festival ‘24 and New Gen playlists are available exclusively on the Boomplay App to music lovers around the globe with easy access to the latest tunes that define the synergy between public relations and music.
The World PR Day Festival is an annual event that seeks to bring together Practitioners, Industry Players, Media, and Students to dialogue and share insights and innovative strategies to improve the industry both in Ghana and globally.
The 2024 festival which began in May took participants through several virtual sessions on Greenwashing x PR and PR Measurements x ROI. Masterlabs were also organised to equip PR professionals in Sustainability and Artificial Intelligence.
It climaxed with a summit which inspired insightful conversations on shaping the African narrative with public relations and storytelling.
