Cotonou, la capitale économique du Bénin accueille dès le vendredi 24 octobre 2025, les Z'aperos des entrepreneuses, un creuset d'échanges et de partage d'expériences entre les entrepreneures culturelles de la diaspora et celles vivant au pays. La Promotrice, Chrystelle FAGBOHOUN, l'Ambassadrice de l'Association la Power Woman family International, Léonide GAUTHE, Carole da SILVA, entrepreneure culturelle, et le Directeur général de l'Agence de Développement des Arts et de la Culture (ADAC), William CODJO, ont annoncé l'évènement lors d'une rencontre avec la presse ce lundi 20 octobre 2025.

« Power Woman ici et ailleurs : Célébrer les femmes de la diaspora et de l'Afrique », c'est la thématique au cœur des Z'aperos des entrepreneuses qui aura lieu à Cotonou, du 24 au 25 octobre 2025. L'évènement sera l'occasion pour les entrepreneures culturelles, les experts de la promotion du genre et les acteurs institutionnels, de mener une réflexion stratégique sur la valorisation, le financement et le rayonnement des initiatives portées par les femmes africaines et de la diaspora.

Trois activités phares vont marquer l'édition 2025. Il s'agit selon Chrystelle FAGBOHOUN, du Cotonou Afro Business Expo qui va regrouper les femmes entrepreneures de la diaspora et celles du Bénin ; occasion pour elles de présenter leurs produits et services. Dans la soirée, les femmes méritantes seront célébrées au cours de la soirée de gala. Le lendemain matin, samedi, un club business est prévu au Novotel pour permettre aux femmes entrepreneures de faire du réseautage et d'organiser des rencontres Be to Be afin de favoriser le brassage souhaité avec la diaspora et l'Afrique, pour des collaborations futures, a expliqué la promotrice.

William CODJO, directeur général de l'ADAC a expliqué les trois raisons principales qui motivent le soutien de l'agence qu'il dirige à l'évènement. Les Z'aperos des entrepreneuses s'inscrivent, selon lui, dans l'une des missions de l'ADAC, celle qui consiste à promouvoir l'économie dans le secteur des arts et de la culture, et faire en sorte que la culture béninoise permette de produire non seulement ses acteurs, mais également des revenus. Il s'agira de mettre en valeur le travail de création des artistes, le porter sur le marché pour en faire des produits vendables sur un marché solvable. La 2e raison d'après les explications du Directeur général relève du fait que l'ADAC a pris l'initiative de susciter des vocations de femmes dans le domaine de l'entreprenariat culturel. Ce qui a conduit à l'élaboration d'un programme important avec la Belgique et visant à former des coachs qui vont accompagner les personnes qui désirent entreprendre dans le domaine des arts et de la culture. Etant donné que les Z'aperos des entrepreneuses s'appuient sur la diaspora, l'ADAC selon son directeur général, a besoin de cet « apport diasporique » pour appuyer des initiatives qui se prennent au niveau du pays.

L'idée de créer les Z'aperos des entrepreneuses est née de la participation de Chrystelle FAGBOHOUN, aux rencontres mensuelles organisées par Carole da SILVA pour le compte des femmes entrepreneuses de la diaspora de la France et de Montréal. Motivée par la détermination de ces femmes à revenir au pays, elle dit avoir pris l'initiative pour permettre aux femmes qui sont restées au pays, de profiter des expériences des femmes de la diaspora.

The hard-right government of Giorgia Meloni vowed to cut the number of migrants crossing the Mediterranean to Europe

Les Journées Scientifiques de l'Economie Béninoise (JSEB) 2025 se tiendront les 27 et 28 novembre à Cotonou. L'événement sera réhaussé par la présence exceptionnelle du Professeur James Robinson, co-lauréat du Prix Nobel d'économie 2024. Chercheur de renom, il viendra partager son expertise sur les liens profonds entre institutions politiques et développement économique.

« Institutions et Prospérité des Nations » est le thème de l'édition 2025 des Journées Scientifiques de l'Economie Béninoise (JSEB). Elles se dérouleront du 27 au 28 novembre 2025 à l'hôtel Golden Tulip – Le Diplomate.

Le Professeur James Robinson, Prix Nobel d'économie 2024, est attendu le 27 novembre au Bénin dans le cadre de cet événement.

Les Journées Scientifiques de l'Economie Béninoise (JSEB) s'imposent progressivement comme un cadre de référence pour les échanges entre chercheurs, étudiants, décideurs et partenaires techniques autour des enjeux économiques contemporains. L'édition 2025 bénéficie du soutien du Programme des Nations Unies pour le Développement (PNUD), partenaire officiel de l'événement.

Le thème des JSEB 2025 met l'accent sur les institutions comme socle de développement durable. À ce titre, la venue du Professeur Robinson prend tout son sens, tant ses travaux ont contribué à renouveler la compréhension des dynamiques économiques à travers le prisme institutionnel.

Une sommité mondiale de l'économie politique

Économiste et politologue, James Robinson est professeur à l'Université de Chicago, où il dirige l'Institut Pearson et occupe la chaire Richard L. Pearson. Il est reconnu pour ses recherches interdisciplinaires qui croisent économie, science politique et histoire. Sa notoriété s'est renforcée avec la parution de plusieurs ouvrages marquants, coécrits avec Daron Acemoglu, dont le célèbre Why Nations Fail (Pourquoi les nations échouent), traduit en plus de 40 langues.

Ses recherches portent sur les relations entre les institutions politiques, le pouvoir et la prospérité des sociétés. En 2024, ses travaux ont été récompensés par le Prix Nobel d'économie, partagé avec Acemoglu et Simon Johnson, pour leur contribution à la compréhension des mécanismes institutionnels du développement économique.

Only three weeks after the informal European Council meeting in Copenhagen on 1 October 2025, EU leaders will reconvene to continue their discussions on defence as well as Ukraine. On defence, the leaders’ main focus will be on the new Roadmap on European Defence Readiness 2030 and on addressing immediate threats on the eastern flank. Regarding the war in Ukraine, they will continue their discussion on Russia’s frozen assets and on the 19th sanctions package against Russia. Another prominent topic at this meeting will be competitiveness, with special attention on simplification, the nexus of green transition and industrial renewal, as well as Europe’s digital sovereignty. Additional agenda points include the situation in the Middle East, housing and migration. Following the European Council meeting, EU leaders will convene for a Euro Summit focusing on the capital markets union, the international role of the euro and the digital euro initiative.

1.   General

As usual, the European Council will start with an address by the President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola. In line with European Council President António Costa‘s new approach, the meeting is intended as a one-day event, but could extend to the next day if needed. Following parliamentary elections in Czechia, this meeting is expected to be the last one for Prime Minister Petr Fiala.

2.   European Council meeting Ukraine

In the context of intensified Russian drone and missile attacks on Ukraine, notably against civilian and energy infrastructure, the European Council is expected to reiterate its unwavering political, financial, military and humanitarian support for Ukraine. EU leaders may have an exchange of views with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who could brief them on his disappointing visit to the US as regards the supply of missiles, and try to gather support ahead of the announced meeting in Budapest between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

As indicated in Costa’s invitation letter, EU leaders will focus on financial support for Ukraine in the coming years and consider options for the use of up to €140 billion of Russia’s frozen assets for interest-free ‘reparation loans’ to Ukraine. While this plan is backed by a majority of EU Member States, some remain sceptical about the use of foreign assets, notably Belgium, host of Euroclear, and Luxembourg, who want further guarantees from the European Commission and the G7 that all partners would share the financial risk in case of lawsuits. A political decision at this European Council meeting would enable legislation to be put forward with a view to possibly starting payments in 2026. The meeting could also discuss burden-sharing within the G7 on a separate €45 billion loan scheme.

Determined to increase pressure on Russia, EU leaders will also need to find an agreement on the 19th sanctions package against Russia, which Slovakia continues to oppose; Austria has lifted its veto. The new package targets oil revenues, gas, banks, crypto-currencies and shadow fleets, with the EU and US aligning on measures to halt Russian oil purchases.

The European Council is also likely to discuss both i) ways of addressing Ukraine’s most pressing defence needs, notably air defence and drone systems, and ii) post-war security guarantees, to which the EU intends to contribute. In that context, it may welcome the ongoing revisions of the mandates of EUAM (EU civilian advisory mission in Ukraine) and EUMAM (European Union Military Assistance Mission Ukraine) to include cyber-defence and ‘strengthening Ukraine’s combat power by investing €2 billion in drones’. In addition, the European Council is likely to call on Russia and Belarus to ensure the safe return of forcefully deported Ukrainian children.

Finally, EU leaders could reiterate their support for Ukraine’s EU accession path and commend the progress achieved, with three clusters ready to be opened.

Middle East

Following the agreement reached on the initial phase of the peace plan between the Israelis and Palestinians proposed by President Trump and signed at the Sharm El-Sheikh Summit for Peace, EU leaders are likely to welcome the immediate release of the hostages held by Hamas and call for unimpeded humanitarian access to Gaza. President Costa, who attended the summit, commended the success of the peace plan and stressed that the EU ‘is fully committed to actively engage with all parties involved in the implementation of this Peace Plan’. He also noted that the EU ‘will expand our humanitarian assistance’ and ‘contribute to Gaza’s stabilisation and reconstruction’. In addition, EU leaders may call for de-escalation in the West Bank, notably in East Jerusalem, and an end to settler violence and to the expansion of illegal settlements. Finally, EU leaders are likely to reiterate their support for a two-state solution, in accordance with UN Security Council resolutions.

European defence and security

In the context of an evolving threat landscape, and following intense discussions on defence at their 1 October meeting, EU leaders will review progress on EU defence readiness initiatives aimed at closing critical capability gaps by 2030. The ‘Roadmap on European Defence Readiness 2030′, presented on 16 October by the High Representative/Vice-President and the Commission at the request of EU leaders, will feed into the discussion. It translates the White Paper/ReArm Europe into operational milestones and outlines four European flagship projects (Eastern Flank Watch, European Drone Wall, European Air Shield, and European Defence Space Shield), while aiming to strengthen the EU’s military industrial complex and boosting joint procurement to an ambitious 40 % of defence purchases by 2027. The roadmap also calls on Member States to form Capability Coalitions in nine key areas through joint development and procurement. Even if generally well received, certain countries such as France, Germany and Sweden have insisted that Member States remain sovereign in their national defence – a point strongly underlined by the Commission in its proposal.

Following repeated violations of European airspace in recent weeks, which require a united response, as stressed by the European Parliament, EU leaders could underline the need to address the immediate threat to European security on the Eastern flank as a priority. They may discuss ways of reinforcing cooperation between Member States as well as efforts to develop anti-drone and air defence capabilities. While calling for the strengthening of the European Defence Agency in the capabilities development process, the European Council is also likely to review progress on financing and investment in the field of defence, notably regarding the €150 billion SAFE financial instrument and the European defence industry programme (EDIP), on which an agreement between the co-legislators has been reached. 

Governance and oversight of defence readiness projects may also be raised, with a possible annual reporting system by defence ministers to the European Council to keep track of progress.

Competitiveness

Competitiveness has been a frequent agenda point during this legislative period, appearing in all regular European Council meetings, except for that of December 2024. The April 2024 special meeting conclusions, the Letta report, the strategic agenda, the Draghi report, the November 2024 Budapest declaration and the March 2025 conclusions have all fed into the discussion. At their October meeting, EU leaders are expected to focus on three themes: i) simplification, ii) strategic debate on the climate objectives for 2040 and iii) Europe’s digital sovereignty.

Costa’s invitation letter stressed that the EU needed to ‘step up’ its efforts to deliver on simplification. The Budapest declaration had already called for a ‘simplification revolution’ to ensure ‘a clear, simple and smart regulatory framework for businesses and drastically reducing administrative, regulatory and reporting burdens, in particular for SMEs’. The work on the ‘Omnibus’ simplification packages is ongoing, but EU leaders may call for further efforts.

At the request of six Member States (France, Poland, Czechia, Hungary, Slovakia and Latvia), EU leaders will discuss the EU’s 2040 climate targets, which will determine the 2035 intermediate target to be submitted to the COP30 climate summit in Belém, Brazil. Currently, the Council has only agreed on a ‘declaration of intent’, setting a range for reductions of greenhouse gas emissions. Back in June, ahead of the presentation of the ‘European Climate Law’, EU leaders had discussed the issue – which was not on the agenda – at length, as certain Member States feared the impact of the transition to carbon neutrality on EU competitiveness and industry. Thus, EU leaders are expected to approach the climate topic from a strong competitiveness perspective, calling for decarbonisation as a vector for industrial renewal, a notable change of approach.

The agenda point on Europe’s digital sovereignty is expected to repeat many points that have been discussed in previous meetings, including the importance of advancing digital transformation, strengthening sovereignty and basing digital policies and solutions on EU values and interests. Interestingly, EU leaders may also mention EU regulatory autonomy in digital issues, which has been brought up recently in connection with US trade negotiations.

Housing

EU house prices have increased by 60.5 % and rents by 28.8 % on average from 2010 to 2025. This rise has generated financial difficulties for many EU citizens, especially as prices of many everyday items and utilities have also increased over the same period. As mentioned in the Leaders’ Agenda, EU leaders are expected to discuss the situation and support (additional) measures at European level to help improve access to affordable and decent housing. The European Council may also request the Commission to swiftly publish the European Affordable Housing Plan, currently under preparation. The European Parliament has set up a special committee to look into the EU housing crisis.

Migration

EU leaders will review the implementation of their June 2025 conclusions on migration, many of which are currently being discussed by the co-legislators, notably the return of irregular migrants and the mutual recognition of return decisions. As has been the usual format in recent European Council meetings, the discussions will be informed by a letter from the European Commission President. The elephant in the room is the migration pact which was adopted in 2024. Some EU leaders call for rapid implementation of the migration pact (e.g. Luxembourg Prime Minister Luc Frieden), while others, such as Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, have stated that they will not implement the pact, even claiming that they had got an exemption.

Although the number of irregular migrants has fallen by 20 % in 2025, in October 2025 nine Member States (Austria, Denmark, France, Italy, Germany, Poland, Slovenia, Sweden and the Netherlands) were still carrying out long-term temporary internal border controls.

Other points Republic of Moldova

EU leaders will address the recent elections in Moldova, pledging their continued support for the country’s resilience and stability. They may reiterate Moldova’s accession path and acknowledge the significant progress achieved so far, inviting the Council and the Commission to take work forward, in line with the merit-based approach.

Pact for the Mediterranean

It is likely that EU leaders will welcome the new Pact for the Mediterranean, announced in the political guidelines 2024-2029 and published on 16 October 2025.

3.   Euro Summit

The second Euro Summit of the year (the first one was in March 2025) will take place in inclusive format (with non-euro-area countries attending) on the same day as the regular European Council meeting. As usual, the current economic situation will be discussed with Eurogroup President Paschal Donohoe and European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde. Ahead of the meeting, Donohoe sent Costa a letter outlining themes currently important for the euro area, such as the capital markets union, the international role of the euro and the digital euro initiative.
