Assistant Secretary of State for the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration Julieta Valls Noyes is on travel to Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal.
State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller said, “In Abidjan, Assistant Secretary Noyes will meet with senior government and international organization officials… She will discuss Côte d’Ivoire’s progress toward eradicating statelessness and successful facilitation of voluntary returns of previously displaced Ivoirians. … Assistant Secretary Noyes will explore opportunities to promote private sector investment in durable solutions, in alignment with the U.S. Strategy to Prevent Conflict and Promote Stability.“
He continued, “In Dakar, the Assistant Secretary will meet with senior government officials and regional international organization partners about Senegal’s exemplary role hosting and integrating almost 19,000 refugees locally. Their integration efforts since welcoming displaced people to southern Senegal’s Casamance region in 1990… have led to a more stable and secure country for vulnerable populations.“
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For discernment for Assistant Secretary Noyes as she discusses regional and global issues with the leaders in Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal.
- For wisdom for the president, administration officials, and allied nations as they forge and strengthen alliances with other nations.
- For the purposes of the Lord to be fulfilled in the United States and around the world.
