€9.48
Bangui, capital of Central African Republic is located between 4° 22 ‘ north latitude and 18° 35’ east longitude (plate 1), surrounded by hills to the East and North-East, and the Oubangui river in the South (border with the Democratic Republic of Congo). This is a great city that has gradually developed towards the West, the South West and the North in a plain where are confused channels of small rivers and marshy lowlands. In the outskirts of Bangui, the organization and orientation of the city is only done by the population: the extension of the city took place following the lines of communication and in an uncontrolled manner. Now it is the interstitial agricultural land that is conquered in turn by buildings. To assess this spatially complex expansion of the town during the last decades, a study of delineation of the urban area of Bangui has been implemented from the use of multitemporal remote sensing images.

Past ten years, literature is an increasing number of works trying to identify the different levers to operate to encourage innovation within companies. In continuation of this work focused on the emergence of a "culture of innovation," the state of the art made in this article allows us to bring about a feeling of "psychological safety" is the only means that:
- Members of the organization are not paralyzed by fear of failure and continue to offer bold initiatives,
- These players learn from the mistakes that will inevitably be committed during the innovation process and are able to no longer reproduce. We suggest, as such, some lines of thought to create a culture of "room for error" in organizations, starting with the consolidation of the reward and sanction systems by the inclination of the direction to "Legends" failures. We stress however that this may be possible in the context of American culture is not necessarily in that of French culture.
