Objectives: U-3ARC (Union of Associations of African Actors in Refrigeration and Air Conditioning) has been created during the General Assembly held in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso on September 24, 2020 by 30 associations of refrigeration and air conditioning actors from 29 countries (Morocco, Tunisia, Cape Verde, Senegal, Mali, Guinea, Cote d'Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Togo, Benin, Niger, Chad, Nigeria, Djibouti, Congo, DR Congo, Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Zambia, Zimbabwe , Lesotho, Madagascar, Cameroon, Gabon, Gambia, Comoros and Tanzania). U-3ARC represents more than 20,000 formal and informal businesses employing nearly 150,000 peoples at the date of its creation. In order to contribute to the sustainable socio-economic development of Africa on the one hand, and on the other hand to overcome the environmental challenges linked to the refrigeration and air conditioning sector, the international expert Madi Sakandé took the initiative to bring together all the players in refrigeration and air conditioning on the African continent.
