On Thursday 30 January, the 3rd plenary meeting between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation and the Association of Honorary Consuls of Monaco (ACHM) took place in the presence of the Ambassadors of France, Italy and the Order of Malta, foreign Consuls and many dignitaries.

The meeting was opened by Ms. Isabelle Rosabrunetto, Director General of the Ministry, who emphasised, in her speech, the Government's interest in the ACHM.  Marc Lecourt, its President, who is also Honorary Consul General of Slovenia in Monaco, recalled the foundations of the Association and its values and role, underlining that, "Over the years of its existence and its activities, the ACHM has taken on a unifying role among its members and also aims to involve them more in the life of the Principality."

At the request of the Association, presentations were given on the Smart City and the energy transition policy of the Prince's Government.  These presentations were of particular interest to the Consuls, who asked the speakers, Pascal Rouison and Annabelle Jaeger-Seydoux, many questions.

Following the closure of the meeting by Laurent Anselmi, the Minister and the President of the ACHM signed the National Pact on Energy Transition.

As a reminder, the ACHM was founded in 2003 on the impetus of Prince Rainier III, and currently has 84 honorary Consuls as members.
