The Order of Social Merit is a Beninese order of merit established on 31 December 1962 in Dahomey by Hubert Maga.
Under the auspices of the Grand Chancellor of the National Order of Benin, the order rewards “any natural or legal person who, through their professional activities or particularly remarkable deeds, has contributed to the social and economic development of the Nation.”
It comprises three grades: Knight, Officer and Commander.
