Togo: Government adopts new decree to restructure National Solidarity Agency

(Togo First) - The government of Togo is restructuring its National Solidarity Agency (ASN). The Council of Ministers reviewed and issued a decree to this end on February 8. This decree is the seventh issued to restructure the Agency for more efficiency. 

Among others, the new decree will enable the ASN to implement reforms that will bolster its actions in the field. It will also allow the Agency to have governance bodies that match its status as a public social body, with legal personality and financial and administrative autonomy.  

In October 2023, the Agency took a step towards its overhaul as spurred by President Faure Gnassingbé. 

The National Solidarity Agency was created in 1992. It oversees and implements Togo’s solidarity strategy and mechanisms. The latter targets the country’s poorest and most vulnerable people. The Agency, however, has been facing management and operational issues for some time now, thus the need for restructuring.
