  • Abstract:The Belt and Road Initiative was introduced in 2013 by China to the world. The initiative reached several countries in Africa where several development projects are conducted. Cote d’ Ivoire, which is also an African country, accepted to deepen its cooperation with China by joining the well-promoted Belt and Road initiative. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the evolution and impact of the Belt and Road Initiative in Cote d’Ivoire. An investigation of official sources, economic factors, interviews, and SWOT analysis leads to the finding that the Belt and Road Initiative was successfully implemented in Cote d’Ivoire and is contributing to the development of the country. The notion of win-win promoted by China seems to be effective.
