UN General Assembly
2021

While 2021 continues to be marked by the pandemic and security challenges, it has been a decisive turning point for the strengthening of democracy in the Niger. Indeed, thanks to the maturity of the people of the Niger and their commitment to democracy, the Niger was able to achieve the first peaceful political transfer of power in its history, from one democratically elected president to another democratically elected president. Therefore, in his programme, also known as Programme Renaissance Act III, the new President of the Republic, His Excellency Mr. Mohamed Bazoum, is committed to consolidating all the achievements made during the two mandates of his predecessors and making the necessary adjustments, based on the lessons learned and the imperatives of the moment. One of the priorities of the President’s programme is the education sector, based on the conviction that the development of human capital remains the key to building a prosperous that is committed to the values of peace, democracy and the rule of law.
