Institut Africain pour Ie Développement Economique et Social, Abidjan

I.N.A.D.E.S. is a research and training institute run by a number of Jesuit Fathers presently depending on the Province of Paris. It was established three years ago at Abidjan; its activities are by no means restricted to the Ivory Coast, but are directed towards the whole of black Africa and Madagascar, although priority is in fact given to the francophone countries.The Institute now employs eight Fathers in various capacities, according to their respective skills. They are Fr Claude Pairault (director), Fr Albert Hanrion (administrator), Fr Pierre Souillac (executive secretary), Fr Jean- Louis Fyot (deputy-director), and Fathers Xavier Baronnet and Marcel Forey, with Fr René Bureau due later this year. At the moment the team has seven full-time assistants and secretaries
