Assessing the 'faire faire' strategy in literacy in Senegal

This study examines the ""faire-faire"" strategy in the field of literacy training, now employed in a number of African countries after being launched in Senegal. It analyzes both the concept, placing it in a context of emergence, and the results in order to draw lessons concerning the institutional, partnership, technical and financial aspects. The review shows that the strategy has had a definite impact on illiteracy and has proved attractive to other sectors. The problems that have arisen during implementation, however, raise the question of whether the strategy should be readjusted (or overhauled); suggestions for adjustment include the repositioning of communities in the process, integration into local development plans, and anchoring the strategy in existing social structures
