Message from the Founding Executive Chairman
Dr. Jean Narcisse Djaha, PhD
Welcome to the Africa—Israel Economic Cooperation Committee, where we are committed to promoting sustainable economic growth, collaboration, and opportunities for African companies and Israel, ensuring a better economic landscape for all involved nations.
I am honored, privileged, and pleased to serve as the Founding President and Executive Chairman of the Africa—Israel Economic Cooperation Committee.
Africa-Israel Vision 2050
This initiative is part of the Africa-Israel Economic Cooperation Committee’s “New Vision Africa-Israel 2050” project, which aims to
stimulate economic, diplomatic, and scientific cooperation between Africa and Israel. The New Africa-Israel Vision 2050 lays out the blueprint for Africa and Israel’s economic, diplomatic, and scientific cooperation for the next 200 years.
The plan has four strategic objectives to reinforce Africa–Israel’s economic and diplomatic relations to benefit current and future generations of business and government leaders, enhance strategic partnerships and collaborations, build coalitions for resource mobilization, and drive a sustainable lobby for African and Israeli leaders to foster a long-term, sustainable economic relationship that benefits both parties.
The Africa—Israel Economic Cooperation Committee was born out of an ambition to create a platform that embodies the pinnacle of reinforcing Africa–Israel bilateral relations for the next 200 years. The Africa—Israel Economic Cooperation Committee is embarking on a transformational journey, not only reinventing Africa–Israel relations but also creating a leading organization that advances mutual interests and drives development projects.
Today, the Africa—Israel Economic Cooperation Committee stands as a testament to our Executive Chairman’s vision, which acknowledges the support of several Jewish leaders who have been with me since my primary school years, both in Côte d’Ivoire and in America.
