Strike at Iba Der Thiam University: End of a Crisis Threatening the 2026 Academic Year

After weeks of tension, the Autonomous Union of Higher Education (Saes) has lifted its unlimited strike notice at Iba Der Thiam University (Uidt) in Thiès. This decision follows the payment of teachers' salaries, preventing an academic year loss. President Bassirou Diomaye Faye welcomes this resolution, but Saes remains vigilant about the sustainability of university funding.
