The Italy-Niger Cooperation Day was held on 17 October, i.e. an event to celebrate Italy’s contribution to Niger through initiatives and activities at several levels, ranging from cooperation to development, vocational training, cultural enhancement and economic development.
During the event, the first workshop for companies was inaugurated, organised by the Italian Embassy in Niger, in collaboration with the Italian Trade Agency (ITA) and the Niamey Chamber of Commerce, which was attended by more than 100 local companies. The 40th anniversary of the Keita Project against desertification was also celebrated, i.e. an initiative that is part of the strategic framework of intervention of the Italian Cooperation in the Sahel region, to raise awareness, identify and formulate concrete initiatives for local development.
The Italy-Niger Day is the result of work based on listening and careful consideration of exchanges of ideas with the Niger people, a partnership based on values of solidarity and cooperation.
