His Excellency the President of the Republic presided over the opening ceremony of the first edition of the Conference of Public Administrators and Managers (CAMP) on Monday, January 20, 2025. This unprecedented event, held at the CICAD, brought together public and semi-public structures around the Head of State, the Prime Minister, and his Government to reflect on the reformation of our Administration.
This meeting comes at a time when the State is facing budgetary, financial, and organizational challenges, necessitating a reinvention of public governance and a republican Administration that needs to be rethought to better respond to current issues. It should be noted that the semi-public sector is hypertrophied and often costly, calling for a rationalization of its missions to better serve the general interest.
In his opening speech, the President reiterated the Vision Senegal 2050, the compass of public action, structured around four axes: a competitive and job-creating economy, sustainable territorial development, human capital and social justice, and finally good governance with a Pan-African commitment.
The Head of State also emphasized the importance of strengthening the efficiency of public action, consolidating governmental solidarity, and ensuring the primacy of the general interest, while relying on a modernized Administration close to the citizens.
Furthermore, President Faye called for respect for governmental hierarchy as an essential condition for good governance and for the fight against corruption, demanding loyalty, integrity, and transparency from all public officials.
Highlighting the increased supervision of the semi-public sector and the redefinition of its missions to better serve the Nation, the Head of State urged each executive, administrator, and manager to work towards governance focused on solutions and results. He reaffirmed that the reformation of the Senegalese Administration is a crucial pillar for realizing Vision Senegal 2050 and meeting the legitimate aspirations of the citizens.
