The first international economic conference dedicated to transparency and financial governance in Libya opened this past Saturday in Tripoli. Organized under the auspices of the Libyan Businesswomen’s Organization, the three-day event serves as a groundbreaking platform for institutional, economic, and private sector stakeholders.
The primary focus of the gathering is to address the multifaceted challenges of public management reform and institutional strengthening, specifically highlighting the role of public policies in improving the national business climate.
Participants and speakers at the conference are emphasizing the necessity of embedding good governance into the foundations of a more transparent and better-regulated Libyan economy. Central to these discussions is the goal of making transparency a primary driver for national stabilization. Panelists have consistently advocated for the creation of a sustainable economy built on sound financial management and digital transformation, noting that modernizing administrative tools and oversight mechanisms is vital for the efficiency of economic institutions.
A significant portion of the dialogue has centered on the private sector’s role in driving economic recovery. Attendees stressed that active involvement from entrepreneurs and business networks is essential for stimulating investment and fostering a more attractive economic environment. By mobilizing these private stakeholders, the conference aims to support broader economic diversification efforts. Ultimately, the groundwork being laid in Tripoli is viewed as a prerequisite for Libya’s long-term sustainable development and its gradual reintegration into regional and African economic dynamics.
