In recent years, for many reasons, including academic failure, the poor performance of our educational systems in terms of quality, and the international mobilization of organizations such as UNESCO to promote universal Education for all, the question of the introduction of our languages into education, which has become an obvious fact for the former colonial power, is constantly fueling political, scientific and pedagogical-didactic debates. Thus, during these decades, many educational reforms in sub-Saharan Africa have taken the issue into account, as evidenced by the numerous initiatives undertaken to this end. However, a few years after the implementation of these first initiatives, our languages are still struggling to find a comfortable place in the system. Hence our research object: Pedagogical innovations for the integration of African national languages in education: what state of the place in Senegal.
