Rabat – Moroccan Khalid Yousfi, President of the National Association of Surveyors-Topographers, has been elected Secretary-General of the Fédération des Géomètres Francophones (FGF) in Lomé, Togo, during the General Assembly of the FGF International Development Universities from March 7-9.

The next General Assembly is set to be organized in November 2018 in Rabat, according to Maghreb Arab Press (MAP).
Created in 2005 in Rabat, the FGF held its General Assembly under the theme “Sustainable Development Objectives: The role of the surveyor.”
The organization brings together 27 organizations of survey engineers from French-speaking countries spanning three continents, including the 18 countries in Francophone Africa.
The FGF, according to the official website of the organization, has become “the main measurement of the earth, its representation at all scales, the definition and estimation of properties.”
The goal aims at representing and promoting the interests of its members in the public and private sectors, “to promote fraternal exchanges and the mutual enrichment of knowledge, and to work towards greater participation and visibility of Francophone surveyors.”
