<p class="rtejustify">Founded in 2007, the <strong>Sub-Saharan Africa</strong>&nbsp;<strong>Center </strong>of the French Institute of International Relations - Ifri works to address the cross-disciplinary issues that the African continent is facing. The Center achieves its mission through quality analyses available in various formats.</p>

<p class="rtejustify">Aimed at renewing interpretative frameworks and nurturing public debate, the Center’s expertise offers helpful tools for policy-makers in Africa. The Center also provides analyses for some key actors in Africa such as the French Ministry of the Armed Forces (<em>Ministère des Armées</em>), the French Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs (<em>Ministère de l'Europe et des Affaires étrangères</em>), International Crisis Group, the OECD or the World Bank.</p>

<p class="rtejustify">Launched in 2008,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ifri.org/en/publications?title=&amp;field_contenugen_fc_aut…’Afrique en questions</strong>&nbsp;</em></a>covers topics of broad and current interest. In addition, the Policy Papers and Reports published by the Center provide more comprehensive analyses. These publications are combined with public events where politicians, academics, companies and civil society can promote dialogue about Africa and share analytical tools.</p>
