La sécurité dans le Golfe de Guinée à l’épreuve du « grand débordement » 09/01/2025
Summary :
The article "Security in the Gulf of Guinea Tested by the 'Great Overflow'" examines the security challenges arising from massive migrations from the Sahel to the Gulf of Guinea countries. This migration, driven by uncontrolled demographics and environmental degradation, leads to tensions related to land ownership, ethnic and religious balances, and the exploitation of natural resources. The newcomers, often impoverished and poorly educated, struggle to integrate with local populations, exacerbating social tensions. The article also criticizes the inaction of international organizations, such as the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), in addressing this crisis. It warns that this situation could further destabilize the region, already facing significant security challenges

Education and Vocational Training in Humanitarian Crises: The Example of Forced Migration in Cameroon 14/02/2025
Summary :
The article by Claire Lefort-Rieu examines the impact of humanitarian interventions in the education sector in Cameroon, focusing on forced migration. It discusses how aid programs influence national policy and decentralization strategies, particularly in preschool education. The study also looks at the Anglophone crisis and the "humanitarization" of primary education, attempting to depoliticize the conflict. Finally, the author analyzes a vocational training project for refugees and its interactions with state and humanitarian actors.

La fabrique de la politique migratoire sénégalaise Concevoir, négocier, contester 12/11/2024
Summary :
Marie-Dominique Aguillon's article, "The Making of Senegalese Migration Policy," published in the journal Anthropologie & développement, examines the process of developing migration policy in Senegal, influenced by interventions from international organizations such as the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Based on ethnographic research, the article analyzes how these entities promote standardized migration policies in West Africa, focusing on the interactions between policymakers, experts, academics, and civil society actors in Senegal. The study reveals that, although the IOM plays a prescriptive role by introducing norms and policy frameworks, there are dynamics of local negotiation, contestation, and adaptation. Senegalese actors do not merely follow international directives passively but actively participate in the co-construction of migration policy, reflecting a plurality of logics and strategies. The article also highlights the tensions between the objectives of international organizations and national priorities, shedding light on challenges related to sovereignty and local ownership of migration policies.

Mali-Niger: climate change and conflicts form an explosive cocktail in the Sahel 30/01/2025
Summary :
The article entitled “Mali-Niger: climate change and conflicts form an explosive cocktail in the Sahel”, published by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in 2019, analyzes the interaction between climate change and intercommunity conflicts in Mali and Niger. Global warming is exacerbating historic tensions between herders and farmers, particularly arable land and making water resources more unpredictable. This situation worsens poverty, weakens public services and disrupts traditional livelihoods. Local populations, already facing underdevelopment, crime and violence, are pushed into difficult choices, such as migration or joining armed groups, to meet their needs. The ICRC highlights the need for a radically different approach to tackling these complex challenges in the Sahel.
