Petite Côte · being structured since 2024
DyTAEL Mbour-Petite Côte
By 2050, the Mbour department reaches food sovereignty and security for resilience and prosperity through agroecology.
Organizational development
A younger platform, still being structured. The territorial diagnostic measured the challenge: the DyTAEL is known to only 7.6% of the surveyed population, and coordination between actors remains weak. Formal structuring is scheduled for 2026.
