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. Secretary General Dr. Amel Karboul – former minister of Tunisia says: “We believe that, due to our individual strength, the validity of our ideas, our use of technology and of participative democracy, we can and must reconstruct our region.”

We are seeking to hire a Communication Officer who will be an integral member of the MEF’s team and responsible for delivering and building projects of varying size and complexity. The Communication Officer is responsible for directing, organizing and controlling communication projects, under the direction of the Director of Communications.
