We will extend our intervention to all women in Côte d'Ivoire, especially those in rural and peri-urban areas, "said Euphrasie Yao Kouassi, Special Advisor to the Head of State on gender issues.

It was at the launching ceremony of the sub-program "National Deployment" which took place on Thursday 28 September at the headquarters of the structure that it coordinates.

This deployment project, which begins in Bouaké in central Côte d'Ivoire on 23 October and ends on 27 November, targets all the targets of the compendium residing in all the localities of Côte d'Ivoire.

According to the former Minister for the Advancement of Women Euphrasie Kouassi Yao, this project has specifically set several objectives. These include identifying women in all regions of Côte d'Ivoire, including the Districts of Abidjan and Yamoussoukro, who excel in their fields of activity with a view to making them models of success, to initiate development projects in localities of women of all levels excelling in their chosen field of activities etc.

Several results are expected from this "national deployment" of the COCOFCI, the main ones of which are, according to the Councilor of the President of the Republic in charge of gender, identification, reward and promotion as models of success for women of all levels who excellent in their field of activity at rural and peri-urban level.
According to the minister, it is also about documenting and popularizing the practices of women of all levels who excel in their field of activity, from the design and implementation of development projects in the localities of identified women of all levels.

This first phase of the COCOFCI "national deployment" project is planned in the 20 regions of Côte d'Ivoire for the period 2017-2020.

In each of these regions, the project will reach the three targets of the compendium, notably high-ranking female executives not yet identified, female graduates with skills to be asserted and women of all levels who excel in their fields of activity .

A pilot phase that will test the designed tools is planned. It will take place in four sub-prefectures selected successively in the departments of Bouaké, Korhogo, Bondoukou and Daloa.
The results of this pilot phase will make it possible to refine the tools designed and the chronogram of implementation of the project.

"We will work with six regions in the first year and for the rest of the implementation period, nine other regions and or districts will be affected by year," Euphrasie Yao said.

The identification criteria are enormous and the "candidates" must excel in the economic, social, environmental and political fields.
A woman who is recognized as a better person in her work or profession, who has contributed to the development of her region or community, is willing to share her experience, have an inspiring experience, recognized as a role model by her community, a pioneer in the pursuit of an activity which has contributed to the expansion of an activity, which has lived off the fruits of its activity for the past five years, are among other things a criterion for this national deployment.
