Slovenia celebrates its 31st National Day.

On June 25th 1991, Slovenia declared its independence from Yugoslavia. This day is celebrated each year as the statehood day known as (Slovene: Dan državnosti). The basic constitutional charter of independence of sovereignty of the republic of Slovenia was adopted as a constitutional act. Then on the 26th of June, the country publicly proclaimed its independence  in Ljubljana, the capital city.

As Slovenians  commemorate the country’s declaration of independence from Yugoslavia in 1991,  we would like to wish the Slovenian people a happy independence day, and congratulate the Slovenian governments for taking this country to its best level. Since 1991, Slovenia has undergone significant transformation, in its economy, bilateral agreement with other nations, and its membership with the EU.

Medkulturna družinska Dejavnosti. ”Naše zgodbe, naše kulture”

Naše zgodbe, naše kulture ”Medkulturna družinska zabava” je odprt, javni medkulturni dogodek za družine, otroke, mladino in odrasle, ki povezuje pripadnike Afriške skupnosti, priseljence ter širšo slovensko javnost. Dogodek združuje glasbo, ples, vizualno umetnost, pripovedovanje zgodb, literaturo, tradicionalne obrti in participativne ustvarjalne delavnice, ustvarja varen in vključujoč prostor srečevanja, kjer se raznolike kulturne identitete predstavljajo in bogatijo slovenski kulturni prostor.

Cilj projekta je spodbujanje kakovostne kulturne ustvarjalnosti pripadnikov Afriške skupnosti in drugih manjšinskih skupin ter ohranjanje njihove dediščine v skladu z izraženimi potrebami. S predstavitvijo avtentičnih umetniških vsebin in sodobnih interpretacij tradicionalnih izrazov projekt povečuje vidnost manjšinskih kultur in prispeva k njihovi aktivni vključitvi v kulturno življenje Slovenije.

Dogodek omogoča neposredno sodelovanje med umetniki Afriške skupnosti in lokalnimi slovenskimi ustvarjalci ter spodbuja medkulturni dialog, izmenjavo znanj in skupno ustvarjanje. Poseben poudarek je namenjen medgeneracijskemu sodelovanju, saj program vključuje dejavnosti za otroke, mladino in odrasle, s čimer se krepi prenos kulturnega znanja, občutek pripadnosti in povezanost skupnosti.

Izobraževalne in ustvarjalne delavnice udeležencem omogočajo praktično spoznavanje različnih kulturnih izrazov, umetniških tehnik in tradicij Afriške skupnosti ter drugih manjšinskih etničnih skupin, kar prispeva k razvoju kakovostnih kulturno-umetniških vsebin ter povečuje dostopnost kulture širšemu krogu prebivalstva.

Business and investment opportunities:

Africa’s renewable energy sector offers tremendous business and investment opportunities. The demand for reliable and affordable energy solutions is driving the growth of solar power plants, wind power plants, hydroelectric power plants and off-grid solutions. As a result, many governments in French-speaking Africa are implementing policies to promote renewable energy sources. International organizations and financial institutions also provide support through financial and technical assistance. 

There is a large market for renewable energy technologies ranging from small home solar systems to large scale renewable energy power plants. Business and investment opportunities include: 

-Solar power plants – Wind power plants – Hydropower plants – Off-grid and mini-grid solutions – Renewable energy storage solutions 

The transition to renewable energy is not only about economic growth, but also about ensuring environmental sustainability. Africa’s shift to clean energy can mitigate the impacts of climate change, reduce carbon footprints and promote environmental stewardship.

GENESIS

Indeed, created in December 2003 in the form of a Savings and Credit Cooperative Company (ECPC) on Certificate of registration in the COOP-GIC trade register n°LT/CO/28/03/5681 of December 10, 2003, Crédit Populaire has complied with all the reforms of the sector instituted by the public authorities, which earned its approval as a 1st category EMF following the restructuring of the sector, and remains an independent EMF.

YESTERDAY (1st Category Microfinance)

The institution opened its doors on February 14, 2004 following ministerial authorization. It was basically made up of a single agency located in Bonaberi (Douala) at a place called Manbanda, and its main activity was Mobile Savings, also called Daily Collection. It continued to grow after obtaining its MINFI/COBAC approval in August 2006. Classified as a COOP-CA 1st category microfinance establishment , it offers several services to its members.

TODAY (2nd Category Microfinance)

The sustained growth of the establishment over the years has enabled it to obtain, since March 2020, its COBAC / MINFI approval as a 2nd category microfinance establishment under the name CREDIT POPULAIRE SA

To date its network is made up of 13 (thirteen) agencies covering 04 (four) regions (Littoral, Centre, West, North-West) out of 10 (ten), in the main cities of: Douala, Yaoundé, Bafoussam and Bamenda .
