From June 29 to 30, 2021, CICODEV Africa in partnership with the CNCF organized awareness days on local consumption in the region of Saint Louis with local authorities.
These days were animated by discussions and culinary demonstration and tasting with local products (dakhine, acara, juice, fritters) at the nursery school of Gokhou M’Bacc and at the Franco-Arab boarding school of Darou followed by a support in foodstuffs for an appropriation of the local consumption in the zone.
A forum gathering all the community leaders under the presidency of Mr. Lamine NDiaye, Deputy Mayor, assisted by Mrs. Fatou Diouf, Deputy Mayor and President of the GPF Sopey Nancy was organized where the challenges of local consumption were discussed.
The 2 days were closed by the organization of a radio program by Sud Fm where Mrs. Nafissatou Diop, focal point of Saint Louis, participated actively.
