    After what humanity experienced during the covid-19 crisis and its repercussions on the world of work and the economy as well as on the habits of each other, the year 2022 was a year of relief and although the health crisis in the world of work has opened up new ways of working, it has also had an impact on the planning, coordination, and control of the various actions, requiring us to be able to adapt to continue to conduct our activities without interruption, which was the case for the CLCPRO Secretariat as well as for the national locust control units of the member countries. The CLCPRO celebrated its 20th anniversary this year during its joint statutory meeting of the 10th session and the 15th meeting of the Executive Committee. This event allowed us to celebrate our achievements, take stock of our actions and strengthen our ties, in the presence of the highest authorities of the member countries, which demonstrates their commitment, despite the period of calm.
