The Action Centre for Development and Research on the Environment (CADRE) is a Senegalese-law organization recognized under number 16980 / MINT.SP/DGAT/DLP/DLA-PA of October 29, 2014, and has actually started its activities. Although its take-off was slowed by the COVID-19 pandemic, it is rising from its ashes.
It was created by its founding members to build a structure able to reduce the various forms of community vulnerability and support their self-determination through action research, technical assistance and capacity building. CADRE also aims to be a scientific and development incubation centre, offering students and other early-career young people internship opportunities that bridge theory and practice.
