Cherifa Linossier is a businesswoman from New Caledonia, who was leader of the Confederation of Small and Medium Enterprises (CPME).
Career
[edit]From 2013 to 2020 Linossier was the Head of the New Caledonia Confederation of Small and Medium Enterprises (CPME), an advocacy organisation which represents the rights of small and medium-sized businesses.[1][2] She is also a member of Le conseil économique, social et environnemental de Nouvelle-Calédonie (CESE-NC), one of sixteen for the southern provinces and member of the internal commissions for education and for economic development.[3] In 2020, having left the CPME after working there for seven years, Linossier announced that she intended to run for election as Mayor of Nouméa.[4][5] Her electoral mission aimed to revitalise the city of Noumea.[6] Linossier was unsuccessful and Sonia Lagarde was re-elected.[7]
In 2019 she lodged a complaint with the French High Commission after Robby Judes, the French ambassador to Vanuatu, assaulted her at a business function,[1][8] along with seven other women.[9] The prosecutor dropped the case after Judes was dismissed from his post.[10] This action led to protests outside the court in Nouméa in July 2019 to demonstrate support for survivors of sexual assault.[1]
