Nathan Tchibozo, premier du Bénin au JO d'hiver

24 Heures au Bénin - Sat, 02/07/2026 - 22:40

Les Jeux Olympiques d'hiver de Milano Cortina 2026 ont démarré ce vendredi 6 février. Nathan Tchibozo, jeune athlète béninois de 22 ans défendra pour la première fois de l'histoire, les couleurs nationales à ce grand rendez-vous sportif international.

Du 6 au 22 février 2026, le Bénin participe pour la première fois à une olympiade hivernale (sky), en Italie grâce à Nathan Tchibozo, jeune athlète béninois qui a découvert la discipline depuis l'âge de 03 ans.
Par sa participation, il inscrit en lettres d'or, le Bénin à cette compétition internationale.
Les Jeux olympiques se déclinent en deux grandes catégories : les Jeux d'été et les Jeux d'hiver. Si le Bénin a plusieurs fois marqué sa présence aux jeux d'été, tel n'est pas le cas pour les jeux d'hiver, réservés aux pays disposant d'infrastructures et de traditions liées aux sports de neige et de glace.
Pour ces Jeux Olympiques d'hiver de Milano Cortina, le Bénin fait partie des trois nouvelles nations qui font leur entrée dans la compétition.

Un bâtiment parti en fumée à Bohicon ‎

24 Heures au Bénin - Sat, 02/07/2026 - 22:00

Un incendie, alimenté par du carburant de contrebande, a entièrement ravagé, samedi 7 février 2026, un bâtiment et d'importants stocks d'essence au carrefour Dako dans la ville de Bohicon.

‎Un bâtiment sis en face de la station-service SGB To à Bohicon a brûlé dans la journée du samedi 7 février 2025. Le feu s'est rapidement propagé avec la présence de plus de six barils de "kpayo" (essence de contrebande).

‎Une épaisse colonne de fumée noire était visible à des kilomètres à la ronde.

L'intervention rapide des sapeurs-pompiers, épaulés par les agents de la Police républicaine, a permis de sécuriser un périmètre de sécurité et d'empêcher les flammes de gagner les commerces et habitations adjacents.

‎Il n'y a pas eu de perte en vies humaines ni de blessés. Mais d'importants dégâts ont été enregistrés.

‎Le bâtiment touché a été réduit en cendres, emportant avec lui de nombreux effets personnels et des marchandises.

Si le pire a été évité, ce nouvel incendie remet en lumière les risques persistants liés au stockage informel de produits inflammables en zone urbaine.

MINUSMA’s Mandate Evolution and Lessons Learned

European Peace Institute / News - Sat, 02/07/2026 - 21:15

IPI, the Stimson Center, and Security Council Report (SCR), in partnership with the Permanent Missions of Germany and Switzerland to the UN, hosted a closed-door workshop on “MINUSMA’s Mandate Evolution and Lessons Learned” on June 13th. The workshop addressed key lessons from the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) which withdrew from Mali in December 2023.

The workshop, convened under the Chatham House rule of non-attribution, brought together representatives from the UN Secretariat and member states and external experts to take stock of the 10 years of MINUSMA’s mandate and operations. It will reflect on the inflection points, drawdowns, and lessons learned to contribute to broader discussions on the future of peacekeeping. The first session focused on a historical overview of the mission and how it evolved with Mali’s changing political and security landscape. The second session focused on lessons learned and how they can be applied to future missions.

This event is part of a series of workshops aiming to support the sustained engagement of UN member states in discussions on how to make UN peace operations’ mandates more realistic, effective, and achievable.

Commemorating the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women

Watch Live Register to Attend

On Tuesday, November 30th, IPI together with GWL Voices for Change and Inclusion is cohosting a policy forum on “Commemorating the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women: Addressing Perpetration at Social and Institutional Levels.”

Remarks will begin at 10:00am PST / 1:00pm EST

In 2021, violence against women (VAW) remains a major global issue. During the COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions on movement prevented many women from escaping the perpetrators of VAW, who are often their partners. In addition, there have been ongoing cases of VAW perpetrated by the very people entrusted with women’s protection, including police officers sexually assaulting and killing young women in the UK and peacekeepers in conflict areas abusing their position of trust as protectors of host communities and representatives of the UN.

This event presents an opportunity to broaden the way VAW is typically viewed by focusing inward on the social, domestic, and institutional levels. In addition to discussing patterns related to VAW, panelists will highlight ways in which civil society has addressed these patterns and how the international community can support civil society efforts as well as promote reform from within its own institutions. Panelists will also provide insight on the role of multilateral institutions in creating agendas and partnerships to prevent VAW at all levels.

Speakers:
Susana Malcorra, former Minister of Foreign Affairs & Worship (2015–2017), Argentina; former Under-Secretary-General, UN Department of Field Support; member and co-founder, GWL Voices
Åsa Regnér, Deputy Executive Director for Policy, Programme, Civil Society and Intergovernmental Support, UN Women
Fatiha Serour, co-founder, Justice Impact Lab; former Deputy Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Somalia; member, Africa Group for Justice and Accountability; member, GWL Voices

Moderator:
Adam Lupel, IPI Vice President
