The African Free Trade Area and its Impact on the Volume of Intra-Regional Trade in light of Trade Openness to African Markets
This study aims to use the gravity model to analyze the trade exchange between Africaand Algeria, and the potential role that African Free Trade Area countries could play in upgradingAlgeria's exports and increasing its opportunities to penetrate African markets and fully open up tothe continent. The study period spans from 2010 to 2022, encompassing 51 countries. Algeria'sparticipation in the African Free Trade Area represents a significant opportunity to increase itsintra-regional trade and openness to African markets, granting access to a market of over 1.3 billionpeople and a GDP exceeding 3 trillion dollars. Through our study, we provide an overview of theeconomic and trade performance of the African continent and the African Free Trade Area, as wellas the efforts of the state to penetrate these markets. We also analyze Algeria's trade exchangeswith countries in the region. Additionally, we delve into the gravity model, both theoretically andpractically, to elucidate the impact of study variables on trade flows between Algeria and theregion. The study concludes that there is a positive impact of variables such as the GDP of regionalcountries, trade agreements, population, and maritime accessibility on trade flows. However, thereis a negative impact of Algeria's GDP and distance on intra-regional trade between Algeria andother African countries

TheArab countries that are least corrupt and have weak crime levels are the most developed countries,while the countries in which corruption and crime are widespread at high levels are the leastdeveloped countries. It was also shown that there is a strong correlation between the corruptionindex and the crime index, and this confirms the existence of a relationship between administrativecorruption (governmental) and people’s corruption (crime).

LES BONNES PRATIQUES SANITAIRES LORS DE LA CREATION ET DU SUIVI DES UNITES D’ELEVAGE DE CHAMELLES LAITIERES EN INTENSIF
La promotion de la filière cameline est un objectif essentiel de tous les acteurs intervenant dans les zones arides et désertiques. Cet axe de développement stratégique passe par la réhabilitation de l‘élevage de cet animal et la valorisation de ses produits. En effet, dans les conditions d‘élevage en extensif du sud tunisien, la production laitière reste faible à cause des difficultés de collecte et de conservation. Par conséquent, des tentatives d‘installation d‘unités d‘élevage de chamelles laitière en intensif ont abouti à une amélioration significative de la production. La maitrise des aspects sanitaires joue un rôle important dans la réussite de cet élevage. Ainsi, les considérations sanitaires doivent être prises en compte avant et au cours de toute la période d‘élevage. Ce travail a pour but les bonnes pratiques sanitaires liées à la création d‘élevage laitier dans les conditions intensives. D‘ailleurs dans le cas de sud tunisien la création des unités d‘élevage en intensif est exclusivement liée à la période de la lactation de la chamelle qui dure en moyenne 8 mois par rapport à un cycle productif de 2 ans. En effet, face aux changements du mode d‘élevage qui dépend du l‘état physiologique de la chamelle, une stratégie sanitaire préventive pourrait être adoptée en trois phases (i) lors de l‘introduction des chamelles dans les nouvelles conditions d‘élevage ;(ii) lors de la traite que ce soit manuelle ou mécanique et (iii) à la fin de la période d‘élevage lors du retour des chamelles vers les parcours en extensif ou semi extensif. Par conséquent, bien que ce système soit plus productif et plus maitrisable, la conduite des chamelles en mode intensif pour la production du lait nécessite une vigilance sanitaire particulière pour lutter contre l‘introduction et la prolifération de certaines pathogènes au niveau de l‘élevage ou de la glande mammaire
