It will allow the adoption of the new OIF 2019-2022 programming, a strategy for gender equality and a guide to promote living together in the French-speaking world.

The Director of BRAO / OIF called on this occasion, the Heads of State and Government of the member countries of the International Organization of the Francophonie to renew their confidence in Michaëlle Jean, elected in 2014 in Dakar at the head of the OIF.

"I wish to reaffirm the commitment of the OIF to stand with the women and men of the OIF to further realize the Francophonie solutions. This Francophonie of solutions brought by Michaëlle Jean deserves to be accompanied, "said Eric Adja.

Names are given to the child by the father, mother, grandparents (paternal and maternal) and some close relatives also.
