Attending the first UNDP Accelerator Labs Africa Retreat in Addis-Ababa, Ethiopia

I went to Addis-Ababa in Ethiopia for a UNDP Accelerator Lab Africa Retreat which took place from 29 August to 1st of September 2022. I went there with one colleague from Mauritius, Melany. It was the first time (because of COVID) that I was meeting all my African colleagues. We were about 100.

As you can imagine, it was a wonderful experience. Addis-Ababa is a great place. It is a modern city and the people and atmosphere there are great.

Of course, I worked during the week but I have to say that I also had a great time with my new African friends. The city is well worth discovering. Ethiopian food is excellent too.

We are currently working on our back-to-office report. As soon as it is done, I’ll update this post.
