Summary: | This research is interested in the environmental impacts linked to the dynamics of the use of coastal space following the emergence of international seaside tourism in Saly on the Senegalese Little Coast. It aims to identify and comprehensively analyze the difficulties strictly linked to dysfunctions in terms of development and management of coastal tourist areas, on the one hand, and on the other hand, it proposes a new orientation in the management of the environment of the coastal area in Saly Portudal.Indeed, the tourism development of Saly is supported by the State and this is accentuated considerably. Currently, this space represents a physically and biologically unstable environment, however as an ecosystem with a fragile equilibrium, it benefits few from effective protection measures and specific sustainable development. Based on qualitative observations related to the practices and modes of management of these coastal areas, semi-structured interviews with meetings organized with territorial actors, namely public institutions, tourism companies, authorities and local communities, NGOs and tourists were conducted. These surveys have helped to better understand why and how the issue of preservation and conservation of natural resources and the coastal environment deserves depth and prospective study. |
