A key exchange meeting on Public Procurement was held in Bujumbura on October 31, 2025, aimed at strengthening transparency and efficiency in the sector through constructive dialogue among stakeholders and ministry leadership. The collaborative session successfully clarified procedures and improved synergy for future public contract management.
