Introduction et explication de la raison de la rédaction et de la publication des articles suivants qui reflètent des décennies de recherche à travers le monde

Mind State of a Single Transition and Two Faces of the Same Energy Vision

The Dream of an Editor is to break the silence and publish analyses, reports and reports on taboo subjects, especially those which convey the reform of knowledge and the recasting of current events according to official standards. As a Moroccan, Morocco is our first idea of development and building benefits for the rest of the nation.

Our work is a journey strewn with obstacles to bring about our perception and our belief in the Written and the publication of articles addressing both the structures of thought and the carrying out actions that can make the debate fruitful and enrich the constructive activities of progress. social, economic development and operational integration of state public agencies in the pursuit, overhaul and realization of the objectives and performances going towards the realization of the authentic independence of the financial and productive economy of Morocco.

By Said El Mansour Cherkaoui – 12/17/2023

État d’esprit d’une transition unique et deux faces d’une même vision énergétique

Le Rêve d’un Editeur est de briser le silence et de publier des analyses, des reportages et des reportages sur des sujets tabous, notamment ceux qui véhiculent la réforme des savoirs et la refonte de l’actualité selon les normes officielles. En tant que Marocain, le Maroc est notre première idée de développement et de création de bénéfices pour le reste de la nation.

Notre travail est un chemin semé d’embûches pour faire émerger notre perception et notre croyance dans l’Écrit et la publication d’articles abordant à la fois les structures de pensée et la conduite d’actions susceptibles de féconder le débat et d’enrichir les activités constructives de progrès. le développement social, économique et l’intégration opérationnelle des organismes publics de l’Etat dans la poursuite, la refonte et la réalisation des objectifs et performances allant vers la réalisation de l’indépendance authentique de l’économie financière et productive du Maroc.

Par Said El Mansour Cherkaoui – 17/12/2023

The counterpart, as in the case of United States investments in a multipolar world, Morocco is choosing:

1 – Targets both at the level of the positioning of the Moroccan Economy on the energy supply chain which is the most important and the most vulnerable at the level of the international market as it is the most profitable at the level of seasonal variations.

2 – Objectives centered on the current multipolar and neutrality in relation to the geo-strategic aims of a competitive nature between the West – United States and Allies + European Union on one side and BRIC, China, Russia and the Dandinons who waddle between the two blocs: like India and the other countries of the South.

3 – Morocco seeks to prove its capacity to replace clean and renewable energies as a national export and as a Magnet for the attractiveness of foreign direct investments which consider Electric Energy as one of the main elements of their risk analysis concerning the host countries of their companies.

4 – Morocco needs to assert itself at the level of the production and transformation of Electric Energy at the level of its offer as a commodity in order to establish its industrialize strategy which will be the new and next stage, namely Emergence of an offer of local and regional solutions for international demand for the International Division of Technological Work, Logistics based on niches of the mastery of digital knowledge and its extension of robotic intelligence.

5 – Morocco is moving forward, building itself and moving towards the establishment of an economy equipped with all the assets to make it a national economic structure diversified regionally and homogeneous at the national level as a stakeholder in the concert of nations hosting national industries located on the periphery of those of other Western and Eastern countries.

These economies, through their past collaborations and their present competition, have far exceeded the framework of the sole “Screwdriver Factory – Tourne-vise Usine” and “Assembly Line – Asymmetrical Assembly Line” asymetric as the basis for the control of the creation and innovation.

These countries, especially in South-West Asia, including China, are now located in an open and spontaneously competitive space at the level of manufacturing and the asymmetrical production of products and services offered for direct and variable consumption by consumers now acquired through selection. products based on their own criteria of choice and demonstration effect and having no consideration for the national origin of the product consumed.

A leveling of supply and demand is found at the level of purchasing power, the price of the product, the quality of its utility, the reliability of distribution logistics and customer service as well as the proximity of the international consumer market in power.

La contrepartie comme le cas des investissements des Etats Unis dans un monde multipolaire, le Maroc est en train de choisir:

1 – Des cibles a la fois au niveau du positionnement de l’Économie du Maroc sur la chaîne d’approvisionnement énergétique qui la plus importante et la plus vulnérable au niveau du marche international comme elle est la plus rentable au niveau des variations saisonnières.

2 – Des objectifs centrés sur les actuelles multipolaires et la neutralité par rapport aux visées géo-stratégiques d’ordre concurrentielles entre l’Occident – Etats-Unis et Alliés + Union Européenne d’un coté et BRIC, Chine, Russie et les Dandinons qui dandinent entre les deux blocs: comme l’Inde et les autres pays du Sud.

3 – Le Maroc cherche a se prouver sa capacité de substituer les énergies propres et renouvelables en tant qu’exportation nationale et en tant que Magnet pour l’attractivité des investissements directs étrangers qui considèrent l’Énergie Electrique en tant qu’un des principaux éléments de leur analyse des risques concernant les pays hôtes de leurs entreprises.

4 – Le Maroc a besoin de se faire valoir au niveau de la production et la transformation de l’Énergie Electrique au niveau de son offre comme commodité afin d’asseoir sa stratégie industrialisable qui sera la nouvelle et la prochaine étape a savoir l’Émergence d’une offre de solutions locales et régionales pour la demande internationale pour la Division International du Travail Technologique, Logistiques basée sur des créneaux de la maîtrise du savoir numérique et sa prolongation de l’intelligence robotique.

5 – Le Maroc s’avance, se construit et se dirige vers l’instauration d’une économie dotée de tous les atouts pour en faire une structure économique nationale diversifiée régionalement et homogène au niveau nationale en tant que partie prenante du concert des nations abritant des industries nationales localisées a la périphérie de celles des autres pays occidentaux et orientaux.

Ces économies a travers leurs collaborations passées et leurs concurrences présentes ont largement dépassées le cadre de la seule “Screwdriver Factory – Tourne-vise Usine” et “Assembly Line – Ligne d’Assemblage” asymétrique comme base et comme seule maîtrise de la création et de l’innovation.

Ces pays surtout du Sud-Ouest Asiatique y compris la Chine se situent dorénavant dans un espace ouvert et concurrentiel spontané au niveau de la manufacture et la production asymétrique des produits et des services offert a la consommation directe et variable des consommateurs dorénavant acquis a la sélection des produits basés sur leur propre critères de choix et d’effet de démonstration et n’ayant aucune considération pour l’origine nationale du produit consommé.

Un nivellement de l’offre comme de la demande se rencontre au niveau du pouvoir d’achat, du prix du produit, la qualité de son utilité, la fiabilité de la logistique de distribution et du service clients ainsi que la proximité du marché consommateur international en puissance.

My concepts and my ideas put forward in this text deserve further study by decision-makers, political leaders, state officials, researchers, academicians and business leaders in Morocco.

Since the end of the 1970s I have been writing and analyzing this phenomenon of transition and transformation of economies, Africa search for a Model of Development in the first place.

A year later, I started my research on Industrial Development in Morocco and what is the central role of the State in lifting the economy to a take-off, growth, and steady development of the most important industrial sectors and productions driving the Moroccan economy and providing the highest return and employment as well as contribution in the exports.

While I was a young student at Sciences Po Grenoble in France, where I lived one of the most devastating in my life stories which undermined all the ingredients and opportunities for another Made In Great Britain future of the time but my pride to be an African and to remain so was worth all the losses I endured thereafter like a cascade of magma burning everything in my path.   My wounds have never been healed but my African dignity is my eternal strength

I am proud to have always supported Africa wherever I go and this through the Education I received from my Mother and my Father, Rahma Wa Ghofrane for all our parents, Amen

Africa between the Walls of Sciences Po Grenoble – France: Right-wing Extremist Fortress and False Progressives in 1977-78

Mon concepts et mes idées avancés dans ce texte méritent un approfondissement de la part des décideurs, des leaders politiques, de responsables de l’Etat, des chercheurs, des académiciens et des chefs d’entreprises au Maroc.

Depuis la fin des années 70 que j’écris et analyse ce phénomène de la transition et de la transformation des économies, en premier le Maroc.

Un an plus tard, j’ai commencé mes recherches sur le développement industriel au Maroc et sur le rôle central de l’État dans l’élévation de l’économie vers un décollage, une croissance et un développement régulier des secteurs industriels et des productions les plus importants qui stimulent l’économie marocaine et offrant le rendement et l’emploi les plus élevés ainsi qu’une contribution aux exportations.

Alors que j’étais jeune étudiant à  Sciences Po Grenoble en France, où j’ai vécu l’une des histoires les plus dévastatrices de ma vie qui a miné tous les ingrédients et opportunités pour un autre futur Made In Great Britain de l’époque, mais ma fierté d’être Africain et le rester valait toutes les pertes que j’ai endurées par la suite comme une cascade de magma brûlant tout sur mon passage. Mes blessures n’ont jamais été guéries mais ma dignité africaine est ma force éternelle

Je suis fier d’avoir toujours soutenu l’Afrique partout où je vais et cela à travers l’Éducation que j’ai reçue de ma Mère et de mon Père, Rahma Wa Ghofrane pour tous nos parents, Amen

Morocco: African Manufacturing Destination

The Slogan Will Become:

No need to mention 100% made in Morocco or Made in Morocco

Le Maroc: Destination Manufacture Africaine

Le Slogan Deviendra:

Manufacturée au Maroc

Plus besoin de mentionner 100% fait au Maroc ou Fait au Maroc



Here is my modest contribution to advance the discussion and to stimulate the debate about national energy that is “essential and/or detrimental” to any model development and if we are seeking to have our industries to be the hub for the Manufacturing sector located between Europe, North America, Middle and Fareast and our Africa, we need to have a Great Power diversified and plural in its source like in its energetic provision based on national independence of our Energy Policy.

Just for matter of location and extension, China has developed a Solar Farm that can provide power to the entire Country of Sierra Leone.

Voici ma modeste contribution pour faire avancer la discussion et stimuler le débat sur l’énergie nationale « essentielle et/ou préjudiciable » à tout développement de modèle et si nous cherchons à faire de nos industries la plaque tournante du secteur manufacturier situé entre l’Europe , Amérique du Nord, Moyen et Extrême-Orient et notre Afrique, nous avons besoin d’avoir une Grande Puissance diversifiée et plurielle dans sa source ainsi que dans son approvisionnement énergétique basé sur l’indépendance nationale de notre politique énergétique.

Juste pour des questions d’emplacement et d’extension, la Chine a développé une ferme solaire capable de fournir de l’électricité à l’ensemble du pays de la Sierra Leone.


China has just connected what it believes to be the world’s biggest solar power plant to the grid in northwestern Xinjiang. The plant covers an area of ​​200,000 acres and is reported to have an output of 6.09 billion kWh annually.

The new plant is in the deserts near the region’s capital Ürümqi. The site came online this Monday (June 3) and is being run by the Chinese state-owned Power Construction Corporation, co-owned by the China Africa Development Fund and the Shenzhen Energy Group, with a respective stake of 50% each.

La Chine vient de connecter ce qu’elle considère comme la plus grande centrale solaire du monde au réseau du nord-ouest du Xinjiang. L’usine couvre une superficie de 200 000 acres et aurait une production annuelle de 6,09 milliards de kWh.

La nouvelle usine se trouve dans les déserts près de la capitale régionale, Ürümqi. Le site a été mis en ligne ce lundi 3 juin et est géré par la société d’État chinoise Power Construction Corporation, détenue en copropriété par le China Africa Development Fund et le Shenzhen Energy Group, avec une participation respective de 50 % chacun. Le parc solaire photovoltaïque de Sierra Leone est un projet solaire monté au sol.

We’re part of @xlinks_uk’s project to build a giant cable between Devon and Morocco, unlocking more reliable, cheap and clean electrons 20 hours a day. “What’ll we do when the wind’s not blowing in the UK?” “Get sunshine from Morocco.”

@xlinks_uk‘s project to build a giant cable between Devon and Morocco.

In Britain, the tiny Devon village of 286 people is linked to MOROCCO by the world’s longest £16 billion submarine cable

The village of Alverdiscott, Devon, is the final destination of the submarine cable project £16 billion marine
The village of 286 is linked to a line to Morocco. The scheme will import solar and wind power to power seven million homes by 2030

The Answer my British Friend is Blowing in the Wind !!!

The Solution is coming from under the Water.

The Morocco – UK Power Project

Morocco, Land of Sunshine, Oranges, Eggs, Electric Charm and Camels for the Brits

The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project will be a new electricity generation facility entirely powered by solar and wind energy combined with a battery storage facility. Located in Morocco’s renewable energy-rich region of Guelmim Oued Noun, it will be connected exclusively to Great Britain via 3,800km HVDC sub-sea cables.

This “first of a kind” project will generate 10.5GW of zero-carbon electricity from the sun and wind to deliver 3.6GW of reliable energy for an average of 20+ hours a day. This is enough to provide low-cost, clean power to over 7 million British homes by 2030. Once complete, the project will be capable of supplying 8 percent of Great Britain’s electricity needs.

Alongside the consistent output from its solar panels and wind turbines, an onsite 20GWh/5GW battery facility will provide sufficient storage to reliably deliver each and every day, a dedicated, near-constant source of flexible and predictable clean energy for Britain, designed to complement the renewable energy already generated across the UK.

When domestic renewable energy generation in the United Kingdom drops due to low winds and short periods of sun, the project will harvest the benefits of long hours of sun in Morocco alongside the consistency of its convection Trade Winds, to provide a firm but flexible source of zero-carbon electricity.

British renewable energy company Xlinks is the developer of the project which will cover an area of ​​around 579 square miles (1,500 square kilometers) in Morocco.  A 10.5 gigawatt (GW) solar and wind farm will be built in the Moroccan region of Guelmim-Oued Noun. The cables will run above ground from the Power Plant until they reach the town of Tantan, where they will run underground.

The laying of the cable will be done with the help of fishing fleets, and the planned route of the cable avoids as many conservation areas as possible.  Following a shallow water route from Morocco to the UK, via Spain, Portugal and France, these cables will connect to the UK national grid in Devon.




Clean energy will thus be connected exclusively to the UK via 2,361 miles (3,800 km) and this with high voltage, direct current (HVDC) submarine cables and are used because of their ability to reduce inefficiencies when transporting energy.

This project is part of the drive to achieve a national net-zero electricity grid by 2035. Xlinks says the Morocco-UK electricity project will be able to power 7 million UK homes in by 2030, representing up to 8% of UK energy needs.

The project will cost $21.9 billion. Xlinks will build 7 GW of solar power and 3.5 GW of wind power, as well as 20 GWh/5 GW on-site battery storage, in Morocco. The transmission cable will consist of four cables. The first cable will be active in early 2027 and the other three should be launched in 2029. An agreement has been reached with the National Grid for two 1.8 GW connections at Alverdiscott in Devon.

Update April 21, 2022:

Submarine cable maker XLCC will build a factory in Hunterston, Scotland, and its first production will be for the Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project.  Alverdiscott in North Devon will provide four 2,361-mile (3,800 km) submarine cables, the first phase between 2025 and 2027 linking wind and solar power generated in Morocco. This initiative will nearly double the current global production of HVDC cable manufacturing.  The world’s longest submarine cables will require 90,000 metric tons of steel, and XLCC signed Britain’s Steel Charter in Parliament this week, in which it pledged to use British steel.



Why go all the way to Morocco to get electricity for the UK?

A response made on October 3, 2021, is given by a British news outlet:

At the beginning of October 2021, this project was estimated at 16 billion pounds sterling and aims to circumvent the fundamental problems of British wind and solar energy.  Our winds are unpredictable and tend to blow at times of day when electricity demand is lowest. As it is for the British sun, well.

Meanwhile, in the Guelmim-Oued Noun region of Morocco, where the green power will be produced, reliable trade winds blow year-round. Equally practical, the wind speed at the Morocco site increases in the late afternoon and evening, coinciding with peak demand periods in the UK.

The sun in Morocco also shines about 3,500 hours a year.  By contrast, Britain averages only 1,500 hours of sunshine per year. And because the sun burns more intensely in North Africa, the solar panels each produce about three times as much electricity there as in the UK, even in winter when British need electricity the most for heating and the light.




The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power project consists of building an inordinate amount of new kits to generate and transport green energy. This means covering 1,500 km2 of Moroccan desert with solar panels, wind turbines and a huge battery storage unit. And copper or aluminum submarine cables, wrapped in polythene insulation, will carry the generated energy to Devon. Four such cables are required, each threaded along a shallow undersea route through Spain, Portugal and France to Alverdiscott.

In the village, two 1.8 GW voltage source converter stations, which look like massive Meccano skeletons, will be built. (1.8 GW is the planned generation capacity for the Norfolk Vanguard wind farm project in the North Sea, which would consist of 180 turbines up to 1,150 feet tall.)



An answer made on April 21, 2022, in a word, the Resilience that is given by the company that is responsible for this project, Xlinks .

Xlinks explains: Morocco benefits from ideal solar and wind resources, necessary to develop renewable projects that could guarantee adequate electricity production throughout the year. It has the third highest Global Horizontal Radiation (GHI) in North Africa, which is 20% higher than the Spanish GHI and more than twice that of the UK. In addition, the shortest winter day still offers more than 10 hours of sunshine. This helps deliver generation profiles that meet the needs of the UK electricity market, particularly during periods of low offshore wind generation.

Remote generation and interconnection between distant geographic regions with inversely correlated weather systems will be more effective in addressing supply and demand imbalances over longer periods of time.

Xlinks notes that solar panels generate about three times more electricity in Morocco than in the UK. Additionally, solar panels in Morocco have a higher capacity to generate up to five times more electricity from January to March than those in the UK.

According to its promoters, this project should create nearly 10,000 jobs in Morocco, including 2,000 permanent jobs.

Dakhla Polycentric Metropolis Modeling Urban Cluster in Southern Morocco



Synopsis

This writing finds its raison d’être in the spirit and the will to advance and share the reflection and the visions concerning authentic development and national integration in a perspective of shared responsibility with our Saharan Provinces.

Our southern regions must be projected on the vision of Morocco Today as the roots of Morocco at the historical level and as seeds for the realization of the culture of territorial and national integrity as well as the pillars and feet of the Moroccan body for its march on the path of final reunification and its steps toward the achievement of social progress, leading to the construction of regional economic development.

This achievement of economic competitiveness is another crossing destination leading to the establishment of its local structures favorable to a national self-sufficiency coupled and reinforced by the sustainability of operational efficiency and the consolidation of innovative and high value-added local productions and highly competitive offerings in the international market.

“Change is imperative and necessary,” said former Interior Minister Chakib Benmoussa, chairman of this 35-member commission, presenting the report on May 26, 2021, in Rabat.See more details at Morocco outlines its vision of a “new development model

Le Maroc dessine sa vision d’un “nouveau modèle de développement”

La commission mandatée par le roi Mohammed VI, pour répondre “à la crise de confiance” révélée par les émeutes du Rif de 2017, vient de rendre sa copie. A special commission appointed by the King of Mohammed VI after the Hirak du Rif presented several avenues for reform after a long reflection that involved all the components of Moroccan society.  Read more details at Morocco outlines its vision of a “new development model

Economic inclusion, social protection,  “effective education”, “quality” health service,  “tax fairness”,  “efficient and honest justice”, and “strengthening of individual and public freedoms”, Morocco is looking for a new development model, to be able to respond to the  “crisis of confidence”  of the population vis-à-vis its institutions.

Through the reading of this introduction and the existing narration in this video, we find no trace of what Dakhla or the other urban centers can acquire as direct responsibility in the establishment and the conduct as well as the realization of a strategy. of multipolar development not only inclusive of the regions but above all based on the anchoring of economic development policies having as content and as a goal:

Polycentric “Metropolization” of Spatial Planning and Synchronization of Regional Productive Units for Homogenized National Development


The Development Model submitted to the King of Morocco failed to mention what I am proposing below:

Establishment of several centers in a dependent territory from a single or dominant center – Dakhla should be transformed into a polycentric metropolis of the Moroccan Sahara coupled with a Hub for services between European capitals and the capitals of African countries.

This regional approach would be a conduit for Moroccan spatial planning based on the notion of institutional unity in regional, economic, and social diversity, coupled with a complementarity of productive and operational para-national synergy.

Dakhla would therefore be a hub of correspondence and transfer as an air and sea link as well as rail, thus creating an integrated logistics modal infrastructure with modes of transport and delivery of people and goods, thus consolidating the links between territorial integrity national and territorial integration of Morocco in trade flows between the major centers of the continents of Europe and Africa. This approach is based almost on density: this is the case with standardized centrality indices which can be broken down at several scales – local or global – and by sector of activity (Guérois, Le Goix 2000; Huriot & al. 2003).

The coastline in the development of Morocco and its Atlantic policy

Le littoral dans le développement du Maroc et de sa politique atlantique

Morocco has been making significant strides in developing its southern provinces and Dakhla as a new development cluster. Here are some key points:

Development of Southern Provinces and Dakhla:

  • Dakhla, located in the Dakhla-Oued Eddahab region of Morocco, is being developed as a major economic hub with a focus on several key industries:
  • The Moroccan government has launched the ‘Dakhla Atlantic Port’ project, a flagship megaproject operating within the development model for Morocco’s southern provinces.
  • The port is expected to support various sectors including fisheries, agriculture, mining, energy, tourism, trade, and industry.
  • Fishing: Dakhla has a rich fishing industry, and the development of the Dakhla Atlantic Port is expected to boost this sector further. The port has an industrial zone of 270 ha, of which 20% is developed for processing industries, storage areas, administrative areas, and a free export zone.
  • Tourism: The region’s unique geography and cultural heritage make it an attractive tourist destination.
  • Energy: Dakhla is at the forefront of Morocco’s green energy initiatives. TAQA Morocco, majority-owned by the Abu Dhabi National Energy Company, has announced plans to invest $27.2 billion in a green hydrogen project in the Dakhla-Oued El-Dahab region. The project will generate 6,000 MW of renewable energy, which will be used to produce and export green hydrogen to meet global demand for
  • The ‘Tiznit-Dakhla’ expressway project is also underway, which will promote new economic networks spanning from central Morocco to Dakhla.
  • The Moroccan government aims to turn the country’s southern provinces into an engine of development at the regional and continental levels.

Maritime Facade for Sub-Saharan Countries of the Sahel:

  • The Moroccan King’s Initiative aims to grant Sahel countries access to the Atlantic Ocean3. This initiative is seen as a strategic turning point for these countries.
  • The initiative aims to integrate the Sahel into global trade networks by utilizing Morocco’s road, port, and rail infrastructures.
  • Four landlocked countries in the Sahel have welcomed this initiative, which requires investments in infrastructure and a co-development approach.

Infrastructure for Logistics and Trade Exchange:

These initiatives and projects demonstrate Morocco’s commitment to developing its southern provinces and Dakhla, serving as a maritime facade for the Sub-Saharan Countries of the Sahel, and building infrastructure to facilitate logistics and trade exchange. However, these are large-scale projects that require significant investment and time to fully realize. It’s also important to note that the success of these initiatives depends on various factors, including regional stability, international cooperation, and sustainable development practices.

“”The Atlantic coast of Morocco has always been an area of varied human and economic settlements, representing a cultural heritage developed on precious landscapes, sites of biological, historical, and archaeological interest. It concentrates most of the activities of the creation of wealth of the country, in particular the large commercial ports, in the process of becoming a locomotive of economic development, such as Tanger Med or the Kenitra and Dakhla projects. This development reflects the opening of the economy to the Atlantic domain and in particular on Africa.”.” Source: Abdellah Laouina: Note de recherche – Le littoral dans le développement du Maroc et de sa politique atlantique, Research note – The Coast in the Development of Morocco and its Atlantic Policy, p. 41-54


Within Moroccan territory, Dakhla would also serve as a model for a hierarchy of intra-metropolitan centers and their respective relations with other centers in Europe and Africa. 

It is such a centrality of Dakhla that could instill an industrialization process stimulating economic specialization and an employment / active population ratio favorable to the training and the attraction of qualified labor, thus being able to interweave and harmonize the implementation. place of niche markets for industrial growth through a synergy between the economic, financial, and cultural cogs operating in the other regions of Morocco. This interweaving would facilitate the establishment of a platform endowed with interchangeable infrastructures, operational units, and complementary niches in the polycentric sense.  

To avoid the emergence of “single-center” poles and the growth of single-center activities, regional and interregional cohesion would be guided by motivation and an approach favoring innovation, Research and Development, and effective job creation. productive preferably centered on Engineering and mechanical engineering and industrial sectors that can reduce Morocco’s dependence on the import of more efficient and innovative devices, machines, tools, and equipment necessary to the productive operations of factories, industries, and advanced technological productions.

Morocco should thus have the capacity to define and shape as well as produce according to its development needs all the equipment necessary for the materialization of the intermediate stages of its industrial progress.

A synchronized distribution between the areas of influence at the productive level and in the promotion of the region as an essential cog in the functioning, the productivity, and the renewal of the necessary conditions and resources that can stimulate the growth of poles of economic specialization responding to the challenges countries, the construction of the free trade area in Africa and international competitiveness.
