JEICOM connects local actors and development partners

JEICOM – Les Journées Économiques Internationales des Communes Africaines was developed by the United Communes and Cities of Cameroon (CVUC), an association that brings 360 Communes and 14 Urban Communities.

According to Mr. Augustin Tamba, this event aimed to promote and finance municipal projects with added value. In this way, it mobilized new partnerships and investment opportunities. More than 150 investors attended JEICOM23.

Our leitmotif remains the same, according to the Mr. Georges Elana Obam Minister of Decentralization and Local Development: to make JEICOM23 the show par excellence of shared opportunities.

Combined efforts will make it possible to lift our vulnerable populations out of food insecurity and ensure the development of our territories.

The forum connected local elected officials, value-added project promoters, investors, investment funds, and solution owners.

Therefore, these were days of promoting the economy of the Communes and Cities in relationship with national and international partnerships organizations, donors, investment funds, and other institutions.
