  ABSTRACT: The objective of this article is to analyse local development in rural areas through mutual development associations. This research was carried out in the village of Kpèbo in central C?te d’Ivoire. It is part of an anthropology of local organisations. The aim was to assess the level of development of Kpèbo and to identify the measures that positively or negatively influence the development of Kpèbo via its mutual development association. A mixed approach (quantitative and qualitative) was used as part of an inductive analysis. The results show that Kpèbo is lagging behind in development compared to neighbouring localities and despite its mutual development association. The community’s perception of the issue of development goes in the direction of acquiring infrastructure for the benefit of the community. The ineffectiveness of its mutual association is due to the existence of internal dissensions and other divergences which do not allow for the pooling of cognitive, financial, relational and professional experience resources in favour of the development of the locality.
