The roots of the Baobab party have spread to France, where the largest community of the Beninese diaspora is established. This diaspora, eager to be represented, to make a contribution to building a more modern, more social and fairer Benin, has mobilized to constitute an extension of Benin’s political life.
The nearly six thousand kilometers that separate us from our families in no way take away our worries, our hopes, our wishes and our ambitions for Benin.
We believe in our strengths, our skills that we want to put at the service of Benin and we are proud of our languages, our culture, our education as well as our art because they are what define us.
The Progressive Union in France is an active section, open to all Beninese in the diaspora in France for whom, the underdevelopment of African countries is not inevitable and who have decided to take action. The section offers a good framework for integration, collaboration, listening, action and development of ideas in order to support Benin’s modernization projects. Joining the UP Section France, means resolutely being :
PROGRESSIVE ;
WORKER ;
UNIT ;
PATRIOTIST.
I invite the Beninese diaspora in France to join us with a common goal: To create or support a favorable return home environment for us and for our descendants as well as to change the lives of all Beninese.
