@SAIIA_info Deeply saddened by Steven’s untimely death. R.I.P.

It is with great sorrow that we announce the untimely passing of Steven Gruzd, Head of the African Governance and Diplomacy Programme at SAIIA. An integral part of the Institute, Steve was known for his unwavering dedication to his work and his commitment to the policy community in Africa. We will miss his brilliant mind, his deep camaraderie and his gentle spirit. His absence leaves a significant void at SAIIA and across the continent he served so passionately. Our thoughts and deepest sympathies are with Steve’s family, friends and all those who had the pleasure of working alongside him. May his soul rest in peace. 🕊️

Le retrait du Burkina Faso, du Mali et du Niger de la CEDEAO a officiellement pris effet ce Mercredi 29 Janvier. La CEDEAO a annoncé que les citoyens de ces trois pays continueraient à bénéficier des avantages liés à leur appartenance au bloc régional jusqu'à ce que les modalités d'un engagement futur avec les trois pays soient pleinement déterminées. Au-delà de cela, WADEMOS souligne les implications sociales et économiques potentielles de la sortie pour les citoyens après la rupture formelle des liens entre la CEDEAO et ces trois pays. #SolidaritéPourLaDémocratie #TransitionPolitique
