Consequences of armed conflict in Mali - Younousse Ag Litiny - Bog

Following the terrorist attacks, some 375,000 Malians fled the conflict in the north and center of the country. 145,000 people, the majority of them women and children, fled to neighboring countries, mainly Burkina Faso, Niger and Mauritania. Mali's neighboring states, local communities, UN agencies and humanitarian organizations have provided these refugees with vital aid, often under difficult conditions. But these actors are already struggling to meet all their essential needs.The needs of these refugee populations include food security, protection, nutrition, education, healthcare, water, sanitation and hygiene. Interventions must therefore be increased and extended to meet the growing humanitarian needs of refugee women and children following the military operations in Mali.This book is, on the one hand, a sociological analysis of the living conditions of these refugees, from the point of view of the populations themselves, and, on the other hand, peels back the quality of the humanitarian response to the crisis of these vulnerable people.
