On November 3, 2026, in Paris, Guinean Minister Tamba Benoît Kamano was awarded the titles of Ambassador of the Union Nations Federation (UNF) and Ambassador of the Declaration of Human Rights. This recognition is a testament to his remarkable career as a jurist and his dedication to serving the Republic of Guinea. The Minister has chosen to dedicate these honors to President Mamadi Doumbouya, expressing his gratitude for the trust placed in him.

The Union Nations Federation, a non-governmental organization with special consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), has acknowledged Minister Kamano's contributions to the promotion of cooperation between nations, access to law, and human dignity. The Declaration of Human Rights, established in 2015 under the leadership of Corinne Lepage, emphasizes the principles of dignity, responsibility, and intergenerational equity. As Ambassador, Minister Kamano will represent and advocate for these organizations.

These new titles are an extension of Minister Kamano's ongoing efforts to modernize the Guinean government's working methods and ensure the legal security of government actions. As Secretary General of the Government, he has been instrumental in promoting a more open and responsive administration. His dedication to these causes has earned him recognition beyond the borders of Guinea.

One of the significant achievements of Minister Kamano's tenure was the institutionalization of the International Network of Government Secretariats (RISGG), which took place during the forum held from October 14 to 16, 2026. This development provides a sustainable framework for cooperation and experience sharing among these institutions. Additionally, he is leading the process of Guinea's accession to the Open Government Partnership.

By dedicating these honors to President Mamadi Doumbouya, Minister Kamano highlights the importance of presidential trust in his work. He aligns his efforts with the President's vision of reforming and strengthening institutions to better serve the citizens. This commitment reflects his conviction that a conscious, competent, and integrated youth can contribute to elevating Guinea's status among respected nations.

Minister Kamano's background and experience make him well-suited for his new roles. He holds an MBA in Taxation and Wealth Management from the Higher Institute of Management (ISG) and a Master's degree in Intellectual Property Law from the University of Paris 8. With over nine years of experience in the banking and insurance sectors, he brings a wealth of knowledge to his position.

As Minister Secretary General of the Government, Tamba Benoît Kamano has led several reforms aimed at modernizing government work and supporting the Prime Minister in coordinating and controlling government action. His election as President of the International Network of Government Secretariats and his new roles as Ambassador demonstrate his capabilities and commitment to serving Guinea.
