"Dispositif" is people. Some people are going to do something; they need people to guide them or help them. They are going to do "the action" and the other people maybe local) will help them get inot position to do it.
Best I can do without a little more.

Note from asker:
That helps. I was stuck on "dispositif" as device or mechanism (fig.), "action" doesn't have a clear predecessor in the text, etc. etc. I can take it from here. Thanks so much, Jeffrey!! |

: Literally, "means to help carry out the action" is the meaning. The problem is how to put this into English. "Dispositif" is not "personnel", although they may be part of the "dispositif". Good thinking, though!
