The gathering took place at the organization\u2019s headquarters in Dakar; an opportunity for the Secretary General, Louisette-Ren\u00e9e Thobi to lay the foundations for a Think Tank.<\/p>\n<p>The Expert group will develop ideas allowing the General Secretariat to promote the actions of CONFEJES so as to serve the populations to whom the organization owes its existence. While the Sport component of CONFEJES is well known on the international scene, part of the public does not always master the other areas of the organization\u2019s interventions, we learned.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing the audience, the Secretary General set out a three-point program, namely Governance and Strategic actions, Youth and Sport. In each of these programs, she said, there is an abundance of activities that young people in general, and women in particular, should take full ownership of.<\/p>\n<p>Created in 1969, CONFEJES has 43 members, including twenty in Africa. Its mission is to implement the economic and social development actions of the Member States, train executives, support youth entrepreneurship, and promote the values\u200b of La Francophonie and the French language, among others.<\/p>\n<p><i>Distributed by APO Group on behalf of African Union of Broadcasting (AUB).<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact:<\/strong><br \/>\nIr\u00e8ne Gaouda<br \/>\nMedia &amp; Communication Officer<br \/>\nAfrican Union of Broadcasting<br \/>\nMail: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:gaouda.irene@uar-aub.org\" rel=\"noopener\">gaouda.irene@uar-aub.org<\/a>\u00a0; <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:contact@uar-aub.org\" rel=\"noopener\">contact@uar-aub.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact CONFEJES:<\/strong><br \/>\nBebey Michelle TCHANIA<br \/>\nCharg\u00e9e de Communication\u00a0<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:michelle.tchania@confejes.org\" rel=\"noopener\">michelle.tchania@confejes.org<\/a><br \/>\nTel\u00a0: +221 33\u00a0859 27 09<br \/>\nMail\u00a0: secretariat.general@confejes.org<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/african-union-of-broadcasting.africa-newsroom.com\/press\/conference-of-ministers-of-youth-and-sports-of-la-francophonie-confejes-announces-hybrid-megaconference-in-december-2021?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source<\/a><br \/>\n<br \/>South Africa Today Africa \u2013 West Africa <a title=\"Cameroon\" href=\"https:\/\/southafricatoday.net\/africa-news\/category\/west-africa\/cameroon\/\">Cameroon<\/a> News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In December 2021, the Conference of Ministers of Youth and Sports of La Francophonie also known as CONFEJES will turn 52.
