Honoured to be hosted at the Olympic Committee, interacting with young Haitian students on UNday. A refreshing opportunity to exchange with the next generations on multilateralism, SDGs, impact and the complementary imperatives for human dignity in the Olympic and UN charters.

Le numérique ne doit pas rester un sujet technique. Il doit devenir un outil pour créer des opportunités, soutenir les jeunes talents, améliorer les services, renforcer les communautés et contribuer au développement durable du pays. Pendant DevExpo 2026, nous avons échangé avec @SylvainMerlen , Représentant Résident adjoint du PNUD en Haïti, autour du numérique, des Objectifs de Développement Durable, de l’innovation et de la croissance économique comme leviers pour Haïti. Une conversation sur ce qui compte vraiment : transformer la technologie en impact. Disponible sur Banj Media Now.

Egypt has many treasures. Master tailor Samir El-Sakka in downtown Cairo is a living one. For over 65 years on Abdekhalek Tharwat strreet, he has dressed the would-be elegant of the Kingdom and then the Republic, now at 88, with the same smile and dashing results as in the 50s.

Africa Impact Summit concludes today! In its 2nd edition, investors, business leaders exchanged on how their portfolios and management are optimized for better social and environmental #SDGs impact, and for business growth.
Takeaways We need to move from acceleration to doing the actual work and get funding backing those ideas. One of the speakers opined that founders are over accelerated. When do you become good enough to be funded? #AfricaImpactSummit24 #ImpactInvesting #TheAfricaWeWant
