Le lancement du Académie Ubora at the 33rd Annual Meeting of the ACBF Board of Governors (BoG) marks a transformative step in addressing Africa’s critical governance and development challenges. Despite the continent’s immense growth potential, leadership and governance capacity gaps hinder effective policy implementation and sustainable progress. The Ubora Academy seeks to close these gaps by equipping leaders with advanced skills to strengthen institutions, enhance public service delivery, and drive economic development. Inaugurated by Ivory Coast’s Minister of Finance and Budget, Mr Adama Coulibaly, the academy is poised to tackle pressing issues such as climate resilience, sustainability, and crisis management. It aligns with ACBF’s 2023 – 2027 strategic plan and broader African frameworks, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the African Union’s Agenda 2063.
ACBF Executive Secretary, Mr. Mamadou Biteye, highlighted the Academy’s flagship Leadership Excellence in Africa’s Public Sector (LEAPS) program, which aims to develop a cadre of leaders capable of implementing bold reforms and transforming governance.
Dans le même esprit, S.E. Josefa Sacko de l’Union africaine a souligné l’importance d’un leadership fort et d’une bonne gouvernance pour parvenir à un développement durable. Avec le soutien de partenaires clés, notamment le ministère des Affaires étrangères de la Finlande, la Fondation Bill et Melinda Gates et l’Institut finlandais de gestion publique HAUS, l’Ubora Academy est en bonne voie pour faire progresser les objectifs de développement de l’Afrique et répondre à ses défis les plus urgents.https://youtu.be/7vB_uNLgsQk)
