abstract: 'Based on an approach focusing on actors and in particular on educational

  trajectories, this paper analyses the effects of diversification of

  educational provision on inequalities in rural Mali. It shows that there

  are considerable gaps in the skills acquired by students, including

  within formal education. These gaps are perceived as illegitimate by

  education stakeholders. The skills developed though the familial

  apprenticeship - which is simultaneous with schooling - play a prominent

  role in workplace integration. At the same time, the skills acquired

  through schooling are put into practice for productive activities.

  Consequences of these results for education policies are also analyzed.
