Join our editor for an insightful "Coffee with the Editor" session featuring the team from the Union Internationale des Chemins de fer (UIC) – International Union of Railways, as we discuss their involvement and activities in the African region. We had the privilege of "meeting" Christian Chavanel, the coordinator for the Africa region and Rail System Director, along with Marie Plaud-Lombard, Maria Lafont, and François Davenne, UIC Director General.
While one may think that the UIC is focused on the European market, they are a global railway organisation with over 60 members and 100 years of expertise and experience in the technical aspects of the sector. They are in an ideal position to offer valuable insights and solutions to operators in Africa, covering crucial areas such as safety, interoperability, telecommunications, passengers, freight, combined transport, certification, and more.
