Refurbishment of a primary school in a village

In the village of Bazoulé, only one in five people know how to read and write. In one of the village's neighbourhoods, Séguédin, the primary school which was originally built in mud and dirt bricks with a straw roof, did not resist the heavy rains. Thanks to the Vivre avec Bazoulé association and the African Development Bank part of the school was rebuilt along with a house for the teacher. However, much remains to be done in order to accommodate the 350 students currently attending the four classes.

The partnership with Addax Petroleum Foundation aims to carry out the expansion of the school and allow a greater number of children to access education locally in decent conditions.

Founded in December 2005 in France, the Vivre avec Bazoulé association is solely composed of volunteers. Each year, a dozen volunteers visit the village to conduct educational and environmental projects. They share their experience and expertise with the villagers, gather material and funds to improve the village's health conditions, all in order to expand access to education and promote the development of local entrepreneurship. The association's primary objective is to lead the village towards sustainable self-sufficiency.

The Addax Foundation is currently funding the construction of:

• two additional classes (4^th and 5^th grades)
• an office for the school director,
• two units for schoolteachers,
• and a storage room for school supplies.
