The Special Representative and Head of the United Nations Office for West Africa and the Sahel (UNOWAS) , Mr. Mohamed Ibn Chambas, is following with keen interest the ongoing process of the constitutional reforms  in Senegal.  

Mohamed Ibn Chambas encourages all actors to conduct a serene debate on the constitutional reforms, and has no doubt that the process will be carried out in  an inclusive and participative manner. Senegal enjoys a well-deserved reputation as a solid democracy in Africa, and any efforts aimed at consolidating the democratic institutions are welcomed.

The United Nations will remain ready to support the Senegalese authorities in this process.
