The second edition of the Future of Work Forum Africa (Fowfa) was held on May 15 and 16 in Casablanca, bringing together 1400 participants, 85 stakeholders and 30 exhibitors around the central theme: Harmony.
The objective of this event is to make it a space for transmission, debate and co-construction, where speech is released and where collective dynamics take on their full meaning.
The event brought together startups, companies, institutions, researchers and students in order to explore work changes in Africa through conferences, workshops and immersive experiences.
In addition, FOWFA made it possible to lay the foundations for a new account of African work and management, based on innovation, inclusion or transformation.
The program for these two days was articulated around four major axes: the evolution of the African company of the future, between agility and anchoring; inclusion as a structural transformation lever carried by adapted public policies; The reconfiguration of professions in the face of artificial intelligence, with a refocusing on human skills; And finally, intergenerational dialogue, recognized as an under-exploited strategic wealth.
On this occasion, several strong voices have expressed themselves, including those of the Minister of Economic Inclusion, Employment, Skills and TPE, Younes Sekkouri, the Minister of Industry and Trade, Ryad Mezzour, Raissa Malu … Other personalities have taken the floor calling for a future of work thought from Africa, for Africa.
“” I am optimistic for Morocco“,” Says Moncef Belkhyat, former Minister and President of Dislog Group.
In addition, five main lines emerge from this edition: a more collaborative and meaningful management, an inclusion generating performance, an AI catalyst for change, a valuation of human capital through listening and continuing education, and finally, an intergenerational link to activate fully.
Carried by the association Workup Africa and its founders Wassila Kara, Amal L. Alami and Wissal Assemmar, the Future of Work Forum Africa asserts itself as a real pan -African think tank on the future of work.
