It is based on a case study that was doneas part of a doctoral thesis. An analysis of the data shows that this program, withoutcreating a radical rupture from traditional social equilibrium, acted as an importantcatalyst for the transformation of social connections within and around the school.The principle changes that were observed deal with the following aspects: the recognitionof the social role and the status and of children, the emergence of a new collegialitybetween the school actors and the construction of a new school-communitypartnership. This study leads to the conclusion that the ETIP made a substantial contributionto the transformation of social connections in Senegal. However, the permanenceof this change will largely depend on the forms that environmental educationwill take following the curriculum reform now in progress in Senegal elementaryschools.RESUMENLa educación relativa al entorno ecológico en Senegal:un potente dispositivo de transformación de los vínculos socialesMichèle BERTHELOTConsejera en asuntos internacionales, Ministerio de Educación, recreación y deporte,Quebec (Canadá)Este artículo presenta los resultados de un análisis del Programa de formacióninformaciónsobre el entorno ecológico (PFIE), implantado en Senegal entre 1990 y2001, bajo el ángulo de su contribución a la transformación de los vínculos sociales.Se apoya en un estudio de caso realizado en el cuadro de una tesis de doctorado.
