ABSTRACT: The observation underlying this study was based on the problem that correlates with the community dynamics observed in the Mobi region, in the process of improving the living conditions of the population. The objective was to describe the experience of peasant solidarity in this region in terms of development with a view to unraveling the challenges to be met in this regard. The field results revealed that the MWANGAZA Collective, as an associative dynamic in the study environment, organizes activities that preside over the socio-economic development of the members. However, this development remains weak for the latter and for the entire region, because the less these members are trained, the less the mobilization of their resources is insufficient and inappropriate.
