FIDIC Africa, formerly the Group of African Member Associations (GAMA) of the International Federation of Consulting Engineers (FIDIC), was formed in 1993 with the intention of providing a platform for collaboration and improved linkages of FIDIC Member Associations within Africa. It is run by a secretariat that manages the day-today activities of FIDIC Africa, whilst strategic direction and decision making is carried out through the FIDIC Africa Executive Committee comprising volunteers elected as representatives from FIDIC Africa Member Associations (MA’s).
