Cinécyclo Sénégal is the Dakar volunteer group that grew out of Cinécyclo's 2015–2016 Senegal expedition and now acts independently of it. Cinécyclo's own pages describe three of its volunteers as still active, without dates.

Key facts

  • Origin

    Volunteers from the 2015–2016 Senegal expedition1

    Documented

  • Structure

    Autonomous, loosely organised; independent of the French association1

    Documented

  • Most recent sign of life

    Three volunteers — Antoine, Mady and Iba — described as still active in Dakar2

    Operator-stated

The volunteers worked alongside Cinécyclo's founder Vincent Hanrion on the expedition of November 2015 to June 2016 1. Cinécyclo's "À l'international" page states that the French association now concentrates solely on projects on its national territory, while local volunteers who took part in that and later expeditions (Panamericana 2016–17, Ecuador 2018–19) remain present in Senegal: "Plus ou moins actifs et plus ou moins structurés, ils sont autonomes et mènent des actions ponctuelles de manière indépendante de l'association" (more or less active and more or less structured, they are autonomous and carry out occasional actions independently of the association) 1. A 2026 crawl of Cinécyclo's fundraising-platform listing names three of them, Antoine, Mady and Iba, as still active in Dakar 2.
