About MEF
The Maghreb Economic Forum (MEF), is a Think-and-Do Tank, founded in 2011 on the premise of supporting further Maghreb integration and unlocking economic and social growth. With a population of 90 million the five founding members, Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia can create a solid social and economic space to thrive in an era of globalization and digitalization. Kamel Lazaar, founder and president of MEF stresses that: “Despite widespread skepticism about the viability and future prospects of the Maghreb, I believe that a stronger and more united Maghreb will help address common challenges, such as the need to create jobs, instability in parts of the region, energy security and education reforms.”
We carry out our mission as a non-profit civic organization. We want to do this in ways that engage the public at large during this era of profound, exhilarating, but at times threatening change.
MEF thrives to become a platform that allows groups and individuals to pilot their initiatives from inception to implementation of solutions and recommendations.
All MEF collaborators whether employees, fellows, boards, or partners, believe in the possibility of transformative change.
