The purpose of DATS is the improvement of the North-south balance by breaking through the stereotype image of poor-rich, in particular for the relationship between Senegal and Belgium

The association wants to achieve this goal by:

• The organisation of support to the projects being proposed by the advising members and being accepted by the board of directors.

• Provisioning of information in Belgium, in order to improve the understanding between Belgium and Senegal.

Our goal is, by applying a minimal structure, to minimise the working costs of the association and to convert the gathered funds to useful purposes in an optimal way.

In order to apply the acquired resources for lasting purposes, these will be transformed to organisations like FODDE, a local Senegal non-governmental organisation (NGO) which engages itself for lasting development in Senegal.
