Middle East & North Africa

The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is a young, dynamic and fast-growing region with a rich cultural heritage. With a population of 355 million people the MENA region is a region in transition. Its multiple strengths include a highly qualified workforce, a strong economic potential, rich and diversified natural resources and proximity to Europe.

 

GOPA Consulting Group (GCG) has been involved in the MENA region for more than 20 years, addressing all major sectors in development cooperation with an increasingly integrated approach.

We have worked with government agencies, ministries,

regional bodies, civil society and the private sector, establishing a longstanding presence and trust with our partners and clients. Our key asset is our proximity through a network of qualified specialists from the region and experienced partners.
