Following the 1991 revolution, the Republic of Mali embarked on a process of far-reaching decentralisation, creating local authorities (communes, cercles and regions) responsible for designing, programming and implementing economic, social and cultural development initiatives. The Economic, Social and Cultural Development Programme (PDESC) is the main tool for managing and coordinating this development.
At the end of the PDESC 2017-2021, the Koulikoro regional council launched the preparation of a new PDESC for 2023, aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It includes short-term objectives, strategies and actions adopted by deliberation of the local authority, and encourages citizen participation in accordance with the Code of Local Authorities in Mali.
The new Koulikoro PDESC received technical support from the Regional Department of Planning, Statistics, Information Technology, Town and Country Planning and Population (DRPSIAP), the Regional Development Agency (ADR), the Citizens' Public Action Monitoring Committee (CCAP) and the Environment and Sustainable Development Agency (AEDD). This participatory approach involved all the key players in regional development, including 116 local authorities divided into one region, seven cercles and 108 communes.
The process of drawing up the PDESC follows six phases: preparation, diagnosis, definition of strategic orientations, programming, drafting and validation/adoption. The diagnosis, a crucial stage, included a technical analysis by the relevant departments and a participatory analysis involving the population and elected representatives, to understand the situation of the region, development trends, strengths and weaknesses, as well as the priorities and solutions proposed by the inhabitants.
Priorities were determined in a participatory manner using grids for prioritising SDG targets, and an action plan was drawn up. The sustainable development action analysis grid (GADD) ensures that each action planned respects the principles of sustainability and contributes to achieving the SDGs. Strong citizen participation in the planning, budgeting and management of public affairs makes the community's assets more visible and attractive, making this tool a lever for local development and territorial marketing. Citizen participation is thus perceived as a guarantee of territorial development.
Après la révolution de 1991, la République du Mali a entrepris une profonde décentralisation, créant des collectivités territoriales (communes, cercles et régions) chargées de la conception, de la programmation et de la mise en œuvre des actions de développement économique, social et culturel. Le Programme de Développement Économique, Social et Culturel (PDESC) est l'outil principal pour la gestion et la coordination de ce développement.
Au terme du PDESC 2017-2021, le conseil régional de Koulikoro a lancé l'élaboration d'un nouveau PDESC pour 2023, aligné sur les Objectifs de Développement Durable (ODD). Il inclut des objectifs, des stratégies et des actions à court terme adoptés par délibération de la collectivité territoriale, et favorise la participation des citoyens conformément au code des collectivités territoriales au Mali.
Le nouveau PDESC de Koulikoro a bénéficié du soutien technique de la Direction Régionale du Plan, de la Statistique, de l'Informatique, de l'Aménagement du Territoire et de la Population (DRPSIAP), de l'Agence de Développement Régional (ADR), du Comité de Contrôle Citoyen de l'Action Publique (CCAP) et de l'Agence de l'Environnement et du Développement Durable (AEDD). Cette démarche participative a impliqué tous les acteurs clés du développement régional, incluant 116 collectivités territoriales réparties en une région, sept cercles et 108 communes.
Le processus d'élaboration du PDESC suit six phases : préparation, diagnostic, définition des orientations stratégiques, programmation, rédaction et validation/adoption. Le diagnostic, étape cruciale, a inclus une analyse technique par les services compétents et une analyse participative impliquant la population et les élus, pour comprendre la situation de la région, les tendances, forces et faiblesses du développement, ainsi que les priorités et solutions proposées par les habitants.
Les priorités ont été déterminées de manière participative à l'aide de grilles de priorisation des cibles des ODD et un plan d'actions a été défini. La grille d'analyse des actions de développement durable (GADD) garantit que chaque action planifiée respecte les principes de durabilité et contribue à l'atteinte des ODD. Une forte participation citoyenne dans la planification, la budgétisation et la gestion des affaires publiques rend les atouts de la collectivité plus visibles et attractifs, faisant de cet outil un levier pour le développement local et le marketing territorial. La participation citoyenne est ainsi perçue comme un gage de développement territorial.
