AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Dakar 2026: Senegal’s Youth Olympics close today after two weeks of competition, with IOC President Kirsty Coventry saying the Games exceeded expectations. Nearly 2,700 young athletes competed across 25 sports, showcasing Dakar’s ability to host a major international event and putting Senegal in the global spotlight. Regional Travel: ECOWAS has agreed to recognize its biometric identity card as a travel document across all 15 member states from January 1, 2027. The move could simplify cross-border journeys, though uneven rollout and verification gaps remain concerns. Beach Soccer: Senegal hosts the Africa Cup of Nations from November 28 to December 6, with the hosts opening against Ghana in Dakar’s next major sporting draw.
