The Committee's welcome was remarkably well organised. My badge was waiting for me at registration, and the invitation letter arrived well before my consular appointment.

In participants' words
Testimonials
Brothers and Sisters from several obediences describe their participation in the proceedings of the United Grand Lodge of Benin and their welcome in Cotonou.
What strikes you is the quality of the exchanges between obediences. Six intense days, yet perfectly organised, and a Beninese hospitality that never falters.
Sister S. Béchir
Delegation of France
The online form took me eight minutes, and I followed every stage of the validation from my personal area. That is exactly what one expects from an international organisation.
Brother J. Thompson
Delegation of Ghana
I was apprehensive about the visa process. The letter was issued within a few days and the Committee answered every one of my questions, without ever promising what it could not guarantee.
Brother R. Ndiaye
Delegation of Mauritania
The shuttles between the hotel and the venue made all the difference. You only appreciate that kind of detail once you are there, in a city you do not know.
Sister L. Carvalho
Delegation of Portugal
The QR code check at the entrance is quick and discreet. You can tell this is an organisation that thought about security and about respect for people alike.
Brother A. Karim
Delegation of Benin
