Abstract

The OMVS (l'Organisation Pour la Mise en Valeur du Fleuve Senegal) is a unique exception to this assessment. The three West African governments of Mali, Mauretania, and Senegal (the "Member States") are engaged in an experiment in international organization that is not only following the most advanced concepts of integrated river basin development,, but which may also afford a lesson in cooperation on a broad scale. This article is intended as a description of the organizational history and structure of the OMVS and a comparison with those of other international river commissions with similar goals.
