Ndèye Coumba Mbengue Diakhaté

Died in 2001

Ndèye Coumba Mbengue Diakhaté was born on 9 December 1924 in Rufisque. She was one of the first women teachers to graduate from the École normale of Rufisque and devoted her career to the links between school and family, combining the education of mothers with that of children so that women could take their full place in society, notably within the Association pour l'action sociale des femmes de Rufisque. A poet, she died in Dakar on 25 September 2001; the daily Le Soleil paid tribute to her the next day.
