Chad’s leading economic council visits N’Djamena for key forum
The president of Algeria’s National Economic, Social and Environmental Council (CNESE), Mohamed Boukhari, arrived in N’Djamena on Tuesday for an official visit to Chad, marking a significant step in strengthening economic ties between the two nations.
Invited by Chad’s counterpart, Ahmat Mboudou Mahamat, Boukhari is set to participate in the opening ceremony of the second ordinary session of Chad’s Economic, Social, Cultural and Environmental Council (CESCE) for 2026, scheduled for Wednesday. The visit underscores the growing collaboration in economic and sustainable development initiatives.
The delegation’s arrival follows months of preparatory discussions aimed at aligning both countries’ economic policies and fostering regional cooperation. The CESCE session will address pressing issues such as trade agreements, investment opportunities, and environmental sustainability—key pillars for West African economic growth.
Boukhari’s participation reflects Algeria’s commitment to deeper engagement with its African partners, particularly in the Sahel region. The visit is expected to yield tangible outcomes, including potential agreements on joint economic projects and shared strategies for climate resilience.
As the forum gets underway, diplomats and economic experts from both nations will explore ways to enhance bilateral trade, promote sectoral investments, and reinforce institutional frameworks for sustainable development. The outcomes of this high-level gathering could shape future economic policies in Chad and beyond.
