Strategy for Security and Development in the Sahel
This Strategy has four key themes:
Firstly, that security and development inthe Sahel cannot be separated, and thathelping these countries achieve security is integral to enabling their economies to grow and poverty to be reduced.

security and development cooperation.
Fourthly, that the EU therefore has an important role to play both in
encouraging economic development for the people of the Sahel and helping them achieve a more secure environment in which it can take place, and in which the interests of EU citizens are also protected
