An enriching session with the World Bank

Yesterday, the 2024 cohort had the chance to share a privileged moment with the World Bank. The fellows attended a productive workshop led by the MIGA (Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency).

Combining academic lessons, practical case studies and open discussions, this workshop has been an intense moment for reflection and experience sharing on infrastructure procurement in Africa.

Following this session, the fellows and the World Bank experts engaged in meaningful talks during a networking cocktail!
