The overseas territories will be in the spotlight this Thursday January 29 , House of the Ocean, in Paris, during the 5th edition of the event “Overseas territories at the forefront”, organized by the magazine The Point. This day of reflection aims to recall the strategic location of the Overseas Territories in the economic, political and geopolitical balances of France.
The title of the meeting reflects a strong conviction: the Overseas Territories are essential outposts of the Republic. The crises they are experiencing directly challenge the national model. Institutional instability in some territories, complex reconstruction after a major cyclone, persistent social inequalities in the French West Indies—these situations highlight persistent vulnerabilities and strong expectations of the State.
Elected officials, researchers, public decision-makers and journalists will share their perspectives on major themes, including the link between the Overseas Territories and the Republic, the maritime sovereignty, the consequences of chlordecone, the rise in drug trafficking or the The place of women in overseas societies. The Minister for Overseas TerritoriesNaïma Moutchou will be present to launch this day, conceived as a time for exchange and collective reflection on the future of these territories and their central role in a pluralistic France. The event will be broadcast live on lepoint.fr.
