Abstract

La digitalisation représente un enjeu majeur pour le développement des zones rurales en Afrique sub-saharienne, marquées par des infrastructures et services publics de base lacunaires, un secteur financier dysfonctionnel, une insécurité prégnante, des conditions climatiques souvent défavorables, ou encore les distances étendues qui séparent les agriculteurs des marchés agricoles (Aker & Mbiti, 2010 ; De Janvry & Sadoulet, 2022 ; Suri & Udry, 2022 ; Aker & Cariolle, 2023). Ces obstacles au développement sont particulièrement aigus dans les communautés rurales des pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest, qui dépendent fortement de l'agriculture pluviale et sont exposés à l'accroissement des risques climatiques, géopolitiques et sociopolitiques, aux conséquences néfastes sur la sécurité alimentaire, les prix des denrées agricoles et la productivité (De Longueville, 2020 ; Sers & Mughal, 2020 ; Bouët et al., 2023 ; McGuirk & Nunn, 2023, 2024).
