Boatyard Modern boat-building in Senegal The boatyard company GIANIPA started its activity in 2009 with the construction of the “Sirène du Saloum”, a 31ft marine plywood catamaran, and two smaller vessels, which were built in Ndangane by a local team with the technical assistance of BCA-Demco. This experience, which took place 4 months for the construction permitted local staff, who already had a good expertise in traditional furniture construction, to become familiar with modern techniques that are based on the use of marine plywood and the epoxy resin, which allow to obtain at parity weight, much stronger, more rigid and much better performance of traditional boats. After this first construction, the shipyard has built two other boats with the “strip planking” construction technique, a modern construction system for wooden hull based on wooden stripes glued with epoxy resin. In 2011 the boatyard was transferred to Bambilor near Sangalkam, 20 km east of Dakar, where the activity continued with the restoration of some fiberglass power boats, which allowed the staff to expand their technical knowledge. Today the boatyard is able to indipendently produce modern wooden boats with different techniques, seeking assistance -BCA Demco only for the most important achievements and aspects concerning the project.

Plan International has been working in Senegal since 1982 to promote children’s rights and equality for girls. To achieve this, we work alongside children, their communities, the Senegalese government and civil society organisations. In Senegal, patriarchal traditions, poor living conditions and ineffectively applied laws lead to the violation of children’s rights, with girls being particularly vulnerable. In addition, there are high rates of child marriage and malnutrition, the standard of health care is low and there are a large number of unemployed women and young people. Our priorities include: Protecting children, especially girls, from violence, including during emergencies Improving health services Providing children with access to quality, inclusive education, including during emergencies Supporting young people to gain key skills and get good jobs. Plan International recognises that violence against children and young people is prevalent throughout the world and in all societies. We are deeply committed to eradicating violence against children and young people and take very seriously our duty to safeguard all children and young people and promote their welfare. This also means holding ourselves to account in ensuring that no child or young person is harmed or placed at risk of harm as a result of their association […]

HISTORY OF THE MAIN HOSPITAL OF DAKAR the project for the construction of the hospital dates back to 1862 and work began in 1880 with the closure of Gorée hospital suspected of maintaining the epidemic risk following the tragic outbreak of yellow fever in 1878 that hit Goree and Dakar, then Rufisque and St. Louis, who had made 750 deaths. Located on the Dakar peninsula, on the edge of Bernard Cove, the Hospital was inaugurated in August 1884. It included seven storey buildings with brick arches facing each other, three to three and was completed in 1897 by two two-storey housing buildings. An arcade gallery combines these two buildings with a facade facing the Governor’s Palace. This first set of buildings constituting the central core of the hospital remains today and gives it all its charm. From 1898, the Military Hospital expands. It is completed with annexes: kitchens, lingerie, chapel, morgue. With the yellow fever epidemic of 1900, new buildings were built to reinforce the Lazaret of the Quarantine of Cap Manuel and shelter the contagious ones. Housing for the Senegalese tirailleurs and nurses was also built between the hospital and Paul Doumer Street (where there is a now-century baobab […]

The Antenna Gallery is an “institution” in Dakar. The high selectivity of the objects presented, combined with the expertise of its animators, make reference. Its situation is atypical: it evolves off the trail of approved experts, auctioneers and membership of a renowned collection. Claude Everlé favors a large periodicity of inter-African travel, to the acquisition of objects in auction rooms. Are not the criteria born of the object-acquiring communion and a refined taste of aesthetics? Credo validated by a success of four decades … The history of the Antenna Gallery merges with that of its founder Marthe EVERLE, who, in 1964, year of her arrival in Senegal, brings her stone to the edification of the country. In 1972, she left the Lycée “Van Vo” to borrow with Claude EVERLE, her husband, the path of primitive and contemporary African art. Thirty years ago, it was to be a pioneer in Senegal, a Muslim country, to translate the rituals of the animist ethnic groups of the countries of West and Central Africa. From her tireless research, Marthe creates a database where each object of art is listed, with its formal specificities, its function … thus revealing its secret. Work for all: intellectuals, […]
