Abstract

In Senegal, migration is a source of income through remittances which are more important that international assistance for development. The money sent by migrants provides a significant form of social protection for households and have had positive impacts on various levels. Both in the family and the community, remittances have helped beneficiaries to avoid poverty while ensuring their children potable water, better health, good education, etc. despite the often mentioned nostalgia of parents.
