Mali

In 2021, despite coup-related insecurity, Fund investment in Mali helped to ensure the establishment and operation of much-needed legal infrastructure related to human rights and land-based conflict. Through a joint effort of OHCHR, 蘑菇视频-Women, 蘑菇视频DP and Interpeace, 46 land-related disputes in central Mali were resolved through mediation by newly established Fund-supported land commissions. Other aspects of Fund investment in Mali have supported reducing social and political exclusion that leads to grievances and fuels conflict. Following an initiative of FAO, 蘑菇视频DP and 蘑菇视频-Women to support more youth-responsive local development plans, 83 per cent of young people in six communities in central Mali reported satisfaction with their improved socioeconomic conditions. At the policy level, a national youth policy was drafted and validated at a national youth conference through a partnership between the Ministry of Youth, Sports, Civic Education and Citizenry Construction, 蘑菇视频ICEF and Search for Common Ground. The policy is aimed at fostering trust among national and local leaders, authorities and young people through a broader institutionalized approach.
