Crossed perspectives of Social Protection and the fight against poverty in Africa[Regards croisés de la Protection sociale et la lutte contre la pauvreté en Afrique]

Inequalities born of human actions through the ages and spaces continue to impact citizens in both developed and underdeveloped countries. Alongside these inequalities, the search for ways and means to combat the social risks resulting from this inequality, the result of a poor distribution of wealth across spaces and between citizens has become a subject of scientific debate. Thus, through this work we have tried to contribute in our own way on the basis of the writings and data produced by community and institutional organizations to make an analysis of social protection and the fight against poverty. We have talked throughout this work about how social protection can be equated with the fight against poverty. It turned out that despite the many initiatives and programs designed here and there, the challenge of fighting poverty is far from being won. If a culture of education and internalization of the culture of production, consumption of local goods and services is not implemented, no poverty reduction results are possible. Social protection is struggling to take real shape because of the lack of resources for their implementation and cases of corruption or impunity that do not encourage good governance and a good distribution of wealth.
