The research took place in the municipalities of Cocody and Marcory and were based on 30 participants. This is direct actors, including several prostitutes, their clients and indirect stakeholders such as the populations of these towns, some relatives and acquaintances of prostitutes and some structures’ officials concerned, from which diverse information was collected. Data were collected using a literature review and questionnaires and then analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The results certainly indicate that several factors, namely, the crisis of the family unit, lack of employment, bad companions realize the luxury prostitution in Abidjan, but the most prominent is poverty. These factors resulting disastrous consequences, such as sexually transmitted diseases and HIV / AIDS to name a few.

Sub-Saharan Africa is home to 24.7 million people living with HIV of an estimated total of 35.0 million people globally in 2013. It also accounts for almost 70% of the new HIV infections globally. In West Africa, Cote d'Ivoire has the highest HIV prevalence, or 3.7% of the 2012 population, and the two virus types (HIV-1 & HIV-2) are present. From an epidemiological standpoint, these unique attributes make Cote d'Ivoire unique. At the same time, existing HIV/AIDS modeling policies have being developed from the data of countries that do not have these peculiarities. This research develops a formal system dynamics model capturing the evolution of HIV/AIDS in Cote d'Ivoire for four decades, starting in 1990. The findings include a development of HIV/AIDS behavior pattern over time that led to the proposal of evidence-based policies.

Our objective in this article is to understand the characteristics of the entrepreneurship of the population of Lebanese origin in Côte d’Ivoire from the perspective of the ethnic network. In other words, it is about appreciating impacts of the Lebanese ethnic network on the development of their entrepreneurial activities, by scrutinizing the modalities such as the support for the immigration, the departure in business, the discovery of the entrepreneurial opportunity, the financing of the entrepreneurship and even the motive in the entrepreneurial commitment. To this end, this article joined within the framework of the studies relative to the ethnic and/or immigrant entrepreneurship. This research thus left the Anglo-Saxon literature on the ethnic entrepreneurship and a field survey to seize how the ethnic network constitutes a major element of the economic integration of the Lebanese by the entrepreneurship in Côte d’Ivoire. In fact, their ethnic network of the Lebanese boosts their entrepreneurship through a shape of selection in the immigration; the family unit - by the tourism or the visit of the family - organizing the arrival of the new migrant until the obtaining of its first employment pending the acquisition of the Ivorian experience or the capital of the future business and the discovery of the entrepreneurial opportunity.

The juvenile instars of oribatid mites of the family Neoliodidae are poorly known, and little information is available on the morphology of ontogenetic stages. Herein, comparative characteristics of juvenile instars of the Neoliodidae species are given based on our own data and available literature sources. The analysis of literature dealing with juveniles of Neoliodidae generated ambiguous results, as certain descriptions are incomplete partly and unclear. The major characteristics of juvenile instars of 10 neoliodid species are presented, and the morphological ontogeny of Teleioliodes ghanensis Wallwork, 1963 is investigated based on material from Oumé region of Côte d‘Ivoire, Western Africa. From these studies, it can be generalized that the juvenile morphologies of neoliodid genera have certain differences, but species within a same genus are demonstrated to have no obvious morphological difference.
