The West Africa Section comprises 9 countries: Côte d’Ivoire, where the head office has been located since 1967, Burkina Faso, Benin, Guinea Conakry, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal and Togo. Since the RECOWA (Regional Episcopal Conference of West Africa) is the managing community and has merged with the English-speaking and Portuguese-speaking countries of West Africa, the section has been able to open itself up to those countries that are interested in the mutual society.
The Section has 6,817 affiliate members from 44 dioceses, 100 male and female congregations, 11 monasteries, 16 New Communities, 9 Academic Units and institutions of the RECOWA.
Our offices are located on the RECOWA’s premises, the location of permanent meetings of Bishops, priests and religious. As such, we welcome affiliate members every day for a variety of reasons, either regarding membership, assistance, advice, guidance, convalescence rest, etc.… or simply to say hello and discover the head office of their mutual society if they come from other countries and are passing through Côte d’Ivoire.
We are encouraged and supported by the Bishops of the RECOWA and all its Institutions who pass by and discover the IMS close up.
