HCCP VISION FOR THE US

Nota Bene : On August 2022 The White House released U.S. STRATEGY TOWARD SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA where you can find :

Sub-Saharan Africa plays a critical role in advancing global priorities to the benefit of Africans and Americans.   It has one of the world’s fastest growing populations, largest free trade areas, most diverse ecosystems, and one of the largest regional voting groups in the United Nations (UN).  It is impossible to meet today’s defining challenges without African contributions and leadership.  The region will factor prominently in efforts to: end the COVID-19 pandemic; tackle the climate crisis; reverse the global tide of democratic backsliding; address global food insecurity; promote gender equity and equality; strengthen an open and stable international system; shape the rules of the world on vital issues like trade, cyber, and emerging technologies; and confront the threat of terrorism, conflict, and transnational crime.  

Building on the Biden-Harris Administration’s actions and commitments to deepen our engagement and partnerships in Africa during the past year, the strategy articulates our new vision for a 21st Century U.S.-African Partnership.  It recognizes the tremendous, positive opportunities that exist to advance shared interests alongside our African partners.  At the same time, we acknowledge that Africa’s potential will continue to be challenged as long as deadly conflicts divide societies, corruption impedes economic progress, food insecurity heightens the risk of famine and malnutrition, and repression stifles human rights and democratic expression.  As President Biden noted in his address to the African Union last year, “none of this is going to be easy but the United States stands ready now to be your partner, in solidarity, support, and mutual respect.”

An enduring multitrack bond with America

Building Peace – Deconstructing War

“Jeudi de la Paix – Peace Thursdays” is first and foremost a concept of living together in a context of widespread political and security fragilitý in Africa. An open concept, it then militates for social cohesion, consensus building, decompartmentalization and the extinction of antagonisms with a view to inscribing Peace in the African and global collective consciousness as a cardinal value.

This forum/advocacy which militates for the extinction of antagonisms in our contemporary conflict-ridden societies, the creation of a consensus platform, and the linking of personalities in diversity in the service of peace. On a practical level, there are three highlights: a) a unique exhibition of artworks; b) the Peace Speech: and the guests/surprises that can go up to Heads of State. The informal debate that follows allows to extend the relational network and offers business opportunities that contribute to peace; c) the tasting of vintages around a networking aperitif. This high level event will have on the menu in 2022 the vernissage of about twenty paintings realized in the crash of bombs and the tumult of war in various countries of Africa ravaged by conflicts under the title: “Ode to the African woman – The Nyangos of Africa”.
