In collaboration with several partners, including the Pharmaceutical Regulation Agency (ARP) and SEN-PNA, the Association of Pharmacy Students in Senegal (AEP-Sénégal) took the initiative to make future graduates aware of the various career opportunities in the pharmaceutical sector. This highlight was materialized on Saturday April 12 at UCAD II, with the organization of a trade fair dedicated to the pharmacy.
This initiative is part of a proactive approach before the richness of opportunities offered by the pharmaceutical sub-sector. The main objective is to facilitate the discovery of new careers available in the field, and to encourage students to consider post-diploma varied professional perspectives. The source of this information, South Daily, underlines the importance of this awareness of the diversity of outlets for the young generations.
Papa Madieye Guèye, head of the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar, highlighted the importance of preparing a promising future for these young professionals. He said: “It is essential to highlight the new professions to ensure the development of the pharmaceutical industry, thus making it possible to absorb the growing number of graduates. »»
For his part, Dr Alioune Ibn Abou Talib Diouf, Director General of the ARP and sponsor of the event, recalled the commitment of the President of the Republic towards the valuation of the pharmaceutical sector. During a Council of Ministers, this subject was discussed, emphasizing the Senegalese priorities that are pharmaceutical sovereignty and the revival of local production. Sud Quotidien also reports the efforts undertaken by the ARP and the security forces to combat cybercrime and drug trafficking, which led to around thirty arrests in three months.
