Educational support initiatives for girls in Senegal

Overview

Various organizations are implementing programs to support female education and socio-economic development in different regions of Senegal.

In the Kolda region, the association ‘Save Our Girls’ is working to reduce school dropout rates and combat social issues such as early pregnancy and gender-based violence. The group provides school kits and hygiene products to disadvantaged students and people with disabilities, while also offering mentoring and student monitoring.

In the Kédougou region, the Association des Femmes de la mine d’or de Mako (AFMOM), supported by the Petowal Mining Company (PMC), distributed school kits to 70 high-performing female students from Mako, Niéméniki, and Tomboronkoto. This initiative was part of a ‘Pink October’ campaign that also included community health activities like breast cancer screening.
