IFLRY Bureau's blog

IFLRY in the press in Ivory Coast

By Ahissata Camara, IFLRY Vice President 

Today, the 5th January 2008, the Ivorian opposition-friendly newspaper “le Patriote” has published an article about the General Assembly in Sarajevo, which is the result of a telephone interview I made just after the GA.

The article is in French and talks about the bureau elections, mentioning that IFLRY has elected its first African woman to a leading position and that IFLRY has as objective to “promote liberalism on a planetary scale”.

The direct link to the article is:

I hope that this article will make more people in Ivory Coast aware of IFLRY and interested in the organisation. It is also good to show that young people in Africa that are not part of a corrupt ruling party can access important international positions.

In the future I hope to be the origin of more articles in other African countries that are less about me and more about specific political issues faced by those countries.
