To represent the Organization was Mr. Dogad Dogoui, WUSME Special Representative and Ambassador in Tunisia as well as President of Africa SMB Forum.

“My role for WUSME here, as well as for the Africa SMB Forum platform, is to defend the interests of Small and Medium Enterprises – he underlined during an interview – therefore access to debates, regulatory and legislative changes on climate change and transition and related markets. As for Africa (states, NGOs, local authorities and companies – including SMEs), the focus remains the search for a better balance in the contributions between the “polluters” countries of the North, West and East of the world, and the countries of the South – including Africans – who need to draw resources from the planet to ensure sustainable development and growth, as inclusive as possible”.
