Just back from an incredible UNESCO 🏛️ #Education #Sciences #Culture 🇺🇳 UNESCO IBE Documentation Center & Archives mission to Cote d'Ivoire. As we continue to digitize our historical collections & open them to the world, it was a privilege to meet amazing individuals and institutions and explore potential collaborations in West Africa.

Getting ready for a group picture with the brilliant minds of Dr. Cécile Ouattara-Coulibaly and her UVCI research squad. Their groundbreaking work is paving the way for open access in Africa and beyond. Great to witness it firsthand and to explore potential collaborations.

Celebrating #PoetryDay by discovering the life and work of Amadou Hampâté Bâ, a beloved and influential writer who dedicated his life to preserving and promoting traditional African culture and oral tradition. Fondation Amadou Hampâté Bâ(FAHBA) is the perfect place to start exploring his legacy.
