ABSTRACT

This paper deals with the importance of the implementation of meta-organi- zations on the governance of corridors with a particular case which is the Dakar-Bamako corridor. Firstly, the document deals with the notion of meta-organization and its consequences on the organization and on the evolution of the concept of corridor. And on this basis, justify how the meta- organization is the model that best adapts to the corridor compared to the concept of district and business ecosystem. To study this Dakar-Bamako corridor and its evolution towards a meta-organization, we conducted a qualitative study with the collection of primary data with the administration of 14 interview guides addressed to members representing the organizations, but also secondary data by using a bibliographical review and reports from ECOWAS and UEMOA, but also documents from bilateral cooperation between Senegal and Mali. The analysis of the results of an empirical study built on several stakeholders (regular actors and user actors) who are complementary in practice makes it possible, subsequently, to identify specificities in the issues that lead organizations to have to constitute themselves as a meta-organization. Commonalities are also emerging such as the increase in coordination functions and the establishment of simpler and more responsive organizational systems to facilitate governance in order to have effective and efficient transport execution throughout the corridor.
