The organisation has a presence in Nigeria and with a new office in Senegal, the firm hopes to solidify its footprint in West Africa, positioning it to better serve its growing client base in the region.
Mr Niang said the Senegal office is expected to be fully operational in 2025. “It will have autonomy in operations and programmes and will collaborate with the Nigerian office to implement cross-country projects. It will be led by Fanta Diaby, a seasoned human resources specialist and manager with extensive expertise in the private sector. Fanta holds two master’s degrees: one in Human Resources Management and another in Financial Policy and Engineering. With extensive experience supporting firms in the telecommunications and extractive sectors, she brings strong expertise in accounting, project management, talent management, and finance,” he said.
Highlighting the importance of setting an office in Senegal, the organisation’s principal partner said the West African country has a vibrant civil society space that plays a critical role in addressing social, economic, and cultural challenges.
