The research revealed that the problems and success of girls' schooling are part of a whole dynamic in which the community plays a role. Indeed, the community represents an area of critical support to girls' education because it gathers together the players whose joint action is significant. This article analyzes the role of the community as a success factor for girls in school. The parents' associations (Association des Parents d'Eleves-APE) and the mothers' associations (Association des Mères d'Eleves-AME) are part of the analysis insofar as they are an integral part of the community space. 2012-08-13T09:39:11Z 2012-08-13T09:39:11Z 2000-10 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2000/10/12356262/girls-education-four-francophone-african-countries-role-community http://hdl.handle.net/10986/9832 English Africa Region Findings & Good Practice Infobriefs; No. 168 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Brief Publications & Research Africa
