Where We Work.

Cote d’Ivoire

Through its regional office in West Africa, based in Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire, EISA is able to build local networks, deliver context, demand driven interventions that are specific to the needs and nuances of the sub-region and provide appropriate and timely support to this effect. 

The first challenge is the democratic decay

Exacerbated in recent years by numerous coups d’états (Mali, Burkina Faso, Chad, Guinea Conakry), a compression of political space and fundamental freedoms, and an absence of countervailing power.

The second challenge is related to the ongoing political transitions

In the several countries in the region which requires technical support to a wide range of institutional, political and electoral stakeholders to avoid stagnation that could lead to violence.

Finally, these two sub-regions are increasingly becoming a battleground between the West and Russia, with Wagner presence in CAR, Mali and Burkina Faso.
