The Executive Committee of United Cities and Local Governments of Africa (UCLG-Africa) welcomed “the continuous support” that Morocco has always given to this organization.

In a press release issued at the end of its 23rd session, held recently by videoconference, the UCLG-Africa Executive Committee welcomed the “continuous support that the Kingdom of Morocco has always given to UCLG Africa and asked the Secretary General to send an official letter of thanks to HM King Mohammed VI”.

During this virtual meeting, the participants discussed the postponement of the first celebration of African capitals of culture which was scheduled in Rabat, in March 2020, because of the Covid-19, according to the same source, adding that a new date for this event will be decided in consultation with the Moroccan government.

The agenda of this session, chaired by the Mayor of Libreville and president of UCLG Africa, included the adoption of the minutes and the implementation of the recommendations of the 22nd session held in November 2019 in Durban and the approval of the execution of the 2019 UCLG Africa budget and accounts.

It also discussed the mid-term implementation of activities and budget of UCLG Africa for the 2020 financial year and the organization’s 2020-2030 strategy.
