The movement

From Sénégal First to MP2S.

A patriotic movement founded in 2019 as Sénégal First, now the Mouvement Patriotique pour un Sénégal Souverain: its history, its President, its Bureau, its Women’s Section and its institutions.

Our history

From Sénégal First to the Mouvement Patriotique pour un Sénégal Souverain.

MSF → MP2S

Founded in 2019 as Sénégal First, the movement grew out of a civic and patriotic drive led by committed Senegalese citizens around the values of sovereignty, solidarity, civic engagement and the development of Senegal.

Over the years, the movement has steadily strengthened its organisation, broadened its areas of action and built a network of committed women, young people, entrepreneurs and citizens in Senegal and the diaspora.

This growth led to the founding of the Mouvement Patriotique pour un Sénégal Souverain (MP2S), which carries the work forward today with a vision built on civic engagement, social action, economic empowerment and participation in national development.

Today, MP2S brings together several hundred members and supporters and pursues its mission around a shared ambition: helping build a sovereign, united and prosperous Senegal.

Our approachUnite – Organise – Train – Act – Be accountable.
