Au large de Dakar, la capitale s\u00e9n\u00e9galaise, l’\u00eele de Gor\u00e9e abrite le premier internat d’\u00e9lite pour filles du pays.<\/p>\n
\u00c0 l’\u00e9cole d’excellence Mariama Ba, les \u00e9l\u00e8ves sont encourag\u00e9es \u00e0 remettre en question les attentes traditionnelles envers les filles dans ce pays d’Afrique de l’Ouest majoritairement musulman.<\/p>\n
Pour Ndeye Awa Diop, son arriv\u00e9e \u00e0 l’\u00e9cole \u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de 12 ans, en provenance de la campagne s\u00e9n\u00e9galaise, a boulevers\u00e9 sa vie.<\/p>\n
\u00ab J’\u00e9tais extr\u00eamement timide en arrivant. Je n’osais m\u00eame pas lever la main en classe \u00bb, raconte-t-elle.<\/p>\n
Au fil des ann\u00e9es, la solidarit\u00e9 de ses camarades l’a aid\u00e9e.<\/p>\n
Aujourd’hui, \u00e0 19 ans, elle est pr\u00e9sidente du conseil des \u00e9l\u00e8ves et s’appr\u00eate \u00e0 obtenir son dipl\u00f4me.<\/p>\n
\u00ab J’ai appris \u00e0 \u00eatre une leader \u00bb, affirme-t-elle.<\/p>\n
Le S\u00e9n\u00e9gal a r\u00e9alis\u00e9 d’\u00e9normes progr\u00e8s en mati\u00e8re d’\u00e9ducation des filles.<\/p>\n
La grande majorit\u00e9 des filles sont scolaris\u00e9es en primaire, \u00e0 un taux sup\u00e9rieur \u00e0 celui des gar\u00e7ons.<\/p>\n
Mais les filles sont plus susceptibles d’abandonner leurs \u00e9tudes, moins de 20 % d’entre elles terminant le lyc\u00e9e.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Le d\u00e9fi actuel n’est pas l’acc\u00e8s \u00e0 l’\u00e9cole pour les filles et les gar\u00e7ons, mais plut\u00f4t le maintien des filles \u00e0 l’\u00e9cole \u00bb, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 Maissa Abdellaoui, sp\u00e9cialiste de l’\u00e9ducation \u00e0 l’UNICEF.<\/p>\n
L’\u00e9cole Mariama Ba affiche un taux de r\u00e9ussite de 100 %.<\/p>\n
En 1985, elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 baptis\u00e9e du nom de la plus c\u00e9l\u00e8bre \u00e9crivaine s\u00e9n\u00e9galaise, dont les romans exploraient le quotidien des femmes tiraill\u00e9es entre l’\u00e9ducation traditionnelle et les aspirations modernes.<\/p>\n
Seules 35 filles sont admises chaque ann\u00e9e parmi les 150 candidates invit\u00e9es \u00e0 passer un examen d’entr\u00e9e sur dossier.<\/p>\n
Les frais de scolarit\u00e9 et d’internat sont enti\u00e8rement pris en charge par l’\u00c9tat.<\/p>\n
L’\u00e9cole se situe sur une \u00eele marqu\u00e9e par une histoire douloureuse li\u00e9e \u00e0 la traite transatlantique des esclaves, mais o\u00f9 une nouvelle g\u00e9n\u00e9ration de S\u00e9n\u00e9galaises est encourag\u00e9e \u00e0 envisager un avenir diff\u00e9rent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
