ArafatNetwork of Self-Managed Aliniha Women's Associations in Tambacounda (Senegal)ObjectivesThe Senegalese inter-AAA, Arafat, aims to integrate women into the process of economic, social, cultural and environmental development in order to improve their living conditions. More specifically, o to establish a consultative and educative organization for solving women specific problems; BackgroundThe Senegalese inter-AAA was officially created on April 14 2014, under the name of ARAFAT, i.e. "Réseau des Associations Aliniha Autogérées des Femmes de Tambacounda/ Network of Self-Managed Aliniha Women’s Associations in Tambacounda". For this, an ad hoc committee consisting of Senagalese, Malian and Burkinabe partners prepared and facilitated the training of the inter-AAA management, the holding of a constitutional general assembly and descriptions of the various management bodies. The current team has outlined the main outlines for the coming three years, a considerable undertaking that will enable them to fix the priorities so as to progressively mobilise the women’s and AAA’s resources. The inter-AAA’s accounting will be handled by the micro-financing partner, Jekabara, whose members and clients are the seven Senegalese AAAs. Arafat became formal member of Aliniha International during its General Assembly held in February 2015 in Gaoua (Burkina Faso).
