On Wednesday, May 29, 2019, the sections of Cocody, Abidjan Campus-Universities and Plateau headed respectively by KOÏ, SOMBO and SAVANE co-animated the “Book Club”. This activity is organized in collaboration with US Embassy in Côte d’Ivoire. It consisted of presenting two books, “Rework” and “There is no But.” In the first book, which is a practical guide, the authors teach how to achieve good results in all our dealings, in our daily life, in business, even at the stage of startup.This book presents methods of success, used by the greatest modern and old entrepreneurs.The second book tells the story of a person doomed by the disease to die from birth according to doctors, but who will survive through the positive thinking of his parents.It immediately becomes the laughing stock of his entourage because of illness. Witty Student, but unable to do sport because of the fragility of his bones, he will eventually let himself be overcome by discouragement before realizing that there is no limit but himself. He will then conclude by saying there is no but. And as there is no but PLANETE PAIX invites you to read.

On Wednesday 17 April 2019, the Sections of Cocody, Campus and Plateau co-organized the Book Club activity initiated by PLANETE PAIX in partnership with the United States Embassy in Côte d’Ivoire. Two books were broken by Mrs. SAVANE and KOUASSI. The discussions were on the books “Find His Why” and “Show Your Work”, written respectively by Simon Sinek, David Mead, Peter Docker and Austin Kleon. For Mr. SAVANE to find his why according to the author, it is to define our reason which is a long-term job. He give some precepts from the book to listeners to be a great leader. He urged them to identify what inspires them, to begin step by step to materialize what inspires them, to get rid of the people who choke them and to build a steering team. The second panellist advised to act on oneself, towards others and towards social networks. Inspired by the book, he recommended to be creative (Just a way of doing things that others have done), amateur (accepting to be wrong), thinking about death (time is limited). In addition, they must find a collective (the vampire test), give others their values and mobilize their networks. At the end of the activity all participants wanted more books and book club activities to help them increase their potential.

On Saturday, April 13, 2019, PLANETE PAIX-Gbêkè started an action of promotion of Peace at Universities with the subject : “Pacification of universities’ yards : resolution and mode of management of the conflicts”. Alassane Ouattara University, at Campus 2, specifically at American Corner, hosted the first activity. This action comes in response to the different forms of violence that are often perpetrated in this space, in particular, that which opposed the students and the prison guards.
The President of the of the Organizing Committee Constant Konan, thanked the participants, the Speaker, the members of the Organization for their presence, and welcomed their effective participation.
The President of the NGO Planète Paix-Gbêkè Marie-France Koffi, speaking, addressed her words of thanks to the Speaker, to the Central President of Planète Paix Achille COMOE, and to the participants. She also made a brief presentation of the international NGO Planète Paix, its objectives, its actions and its fields of action.
President Achille COMOE, addressed the conference participants through illustrations of school and university violence to show the need for peace in our schools and universities. He also thanked the participants, the President of the NGO Planète Paix-Gbêkè, the members of his team and the authorities present. He ended his speech by highlighting the actions of the Organization in the quest for peace in the country.
The representative of the Regional Director of Youth, Mr. Oulai Jean Jacques, ended the series of speeches. Mr. Oulai emphasized that students be sensitized on the need to respect University rules.
The speaker of the day, Professor CAMARA Moritis, Senior Lecturer in the History of International Relations, pointed out that ” University is a place of production, preservation and dissemination of knowledge” before attracting attention of the audience that the word “pacification” is not appropriate in the context that brings us together. The speaker explained that the word pacification is a military and colonial term. The use of such a term, related to the university space seems therefore incongruous and therefore unacceptable. This would help make this special area a theater of military operations, a war ground, in this case, it would be appropriate to pacify. Having lashed out at the behavior of certain actors in the university space who are similar in their manifestations to military operations, the Professor recommended dialogue as a way of resolving disputes that may arise between academic actors and between these actors and outsiders. For him, the appropriate word is “Normalization”. He concluded his communication in these terms : “When you know who you are, you adapt your behavior to what is expected of you”.
