A delegation led by the Director-General of the CSRS, Prof. Jeremie Zoueu, was received at Administrative Tower A in Le Plateau on Tuesday 21 July 2026 by Mr Adama Kamara, Minister for Employment and Social Protection (MEPS).
At the start of the visit, Prof. Zoueu presented his institution, a centre that produces useful knowledge, strategic data and statistical analysis tools to address societal issues.
Discussions focused primarily on two experimental research schemes – the Taabo HDSS and the Bringakro farm-school – and the opportunities they offer for the MEPS.
The discussions were fruitful; the Minister for Employment and Social Protection opened up as yet unexplored avenues for collaboration. He expressed his wish to organise a second working session with proposals for modelling the frameworks discussed, with a view to putting this collaboration between the Swiss Centre and his ministry into practice.
The Director-General of the CSRS said he was very satisfied with this visit and deeply honoured by the attention and time the Minister had devoted to his institution.
This series of working visits, which Prof. Zoueu has initiated since taking up his post on 1 July, demonstrates a clear commitment and ambition to forge and/or strengthen strategic partnerships in order to contribute in a highly pragmatic manner to the sustainable development of Côte d’Ivoire and sub-Saharan Africa.
The CSRS delegation comprised Prof. Jérémie T. ZOUEU, Director-General; Dr Daouda DAO, Director of Research and Development; Dr Bognan KONE, Associate Researcher; and Ms Ange KONE, Head of Communications.
