Gender-Inclusive Development and Policy Transformation in the Field of Basic Education 28/08/2025
Summary :
This research paper explores the transformation of policies—legislative, legal, and institutional—related to gender-inclusive development across basic education, higher education, and scientific research in Côte d'Ivoire. Drawing on both primary data (interviews with key stakeholders in ministries and NGOs) and secondary sources (databases from ECOWAS, the African Union, and national ministries), the study finds that the coordinated implementation of international resolutions has significantly reduced gender disparities in basic education. While advancements are also noted in higher education, many challenges remain: lack of gender-disaggregated data, inadequate qualitative monitoring, and insufficient support for women’s progression in academic and research careers. The author concludes with actionable recommendations: enhance data collection systems, foster institutional cooperation, and elevate the status of female graduates in professional sectors to sustain gender equality gains.

Monitoring Bulletin of Micro-Enterprises in Bassikounou 10/07/2025
Summary :
This bulletin, published by Action Against Hunger (ACF) in May 2025, presents monitoring data from 64 microenterprises supported in Bassikounou, Mauritania. The report highlights the continued economic vulnerability of households, despite support for income-generating activities (IGAs). Average monthly income remains low (27,540 MRU) and unstable, particularly for women (22,250 MRU). Households face heavy expenses for health, food, and education, with limited savings capacity and weak income diversification. The report also notes the negative impact of climate shocks on economic activities. While beneficiaries acknowledge positive effects from the program, their prospects remain precarious without structural support, enhanced market access, training, and financing opportunities.

Rethinking Democracy Through a Feminine Lens: An Urgency and a Necessity 27/05/2025
Summary :
In this podcast, Pape Abdou Ndour highlights the commitment of sociologist Fatou Sow, a pioneer of African feminism, towards an inclusive democracy. He revisits a 2019 interview where she denounced the stigmatization of women in cases of early pregnancies, emphasizing the often-overlooked responsibility of men. The podcast also discusses the symposium held in Dakar in May 2025 by the Foundation for Innovation in Democracy, honoring Fatou Sow. This event brought together researchers and activists to discuss democracy from a female perspective, covering topics such as women's knowledge, technologies, and sexualities. The author emphasizes the importance of acknowledging gender discrimination and valuing women's knowledge to build substantive democracy in Africa

Information Note on Food and Nutritional Security – Lean Season 2025 29/04/2025
Summary :
n 2025, Mauritania is experiencing a complex humanitarian crisis exacerbated by ongoing insecurity, climate change, and a significant influx of 318,000 Malian refugees and 55,000 returning Mauritanians. During the lean season (June–September), an estimated 590,452 people will face acute food insecurity (IPC Phase 3+), particularly in the Hodh Chargui region. While agro-pastoral conditions are generally favorable, localized floods and high food prices are straining vulnerable households. Action Against Hunger's emergency response has improved food diversity, coping strategies, and key nutritional indicators. Despite being a socioeconomic pillar, pastoralism is increasingly threatened by environmental degradation and cross-border pressures. Stronger partner support is crucial to prevent conflicts and build long-term resilience.
