  abstract = {{A}lthough tools to control sleeping sickness do exist, their use is difficult ; areas where intervention is most required often cannot be targeted for lack of appropriate risk indicators. {T}he importance of human behaviour and habits in the manifestation of the disease is clear. {I}n the development of effective new approaches to the control of the disease, information must be gathered about human populations, and their interaction with the environment, in rural as well as in urban and peri-urban areas. {T}he results of a study carried out in {D}aloa show that use of some methods for the development of agricultural land leads to increased human-vector contact and, as a result, increased risk of sleeping sickness. {S}uch land-management-methods may therefore be useful as risk indicators for transmission. {T}ransmission does not occur in the town of {D}aloa itself but in surrounding areas under cultivation. {T}he use of the epidemiological risk index seems to be inappropriate in urban (and perhaps peri-urban) areas. {T}he results emphasise not only the importance of environmental and demographic data in elucidating the epidemiology of human trypanosomiasis but also the need for further investigations in peri-urban areas.
