Working environment
With the slow implementation of the Agreement for Peace and Reconciliation in Mali, signed in June 2015, the ongoing threats of terrorism and criminality continue to hinder humanitarian access to people of concern in the north and necessitate specific risk-reduction measures for UNHCR personnel on missions in the field. The risk of renewed intercommunal violence also remains high, with the potential to impact voluntary returns of Malian refugees and internally displaced people (IDPs). Despite the volatile security situation, Mali continues to welcome asylum-seekers and refugees from other countries. The Government of Mali remains in favour of the naturalization and integration of long-staying refugee populations, notably Mauritanian refugees. This is expected to reduce the number of refugees in the country by 2017.Key Priorities
In 2017, UNHCR will focus on:• facilitating durable solutions for refugees in protracted situations by promoting access to socio-economic integration, legal documentation and naturalization;
• assisting urban refugees and asylum-seekers through cash-based interventions (CBIs), improved documentation, education and sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) prevention;
• supporting preparations for the voluntary and sustainable return of Malian refugees and IDPs. including by planning activities in the areas of CBIs, self-reliance, SGBV prevention, documentation, protection monitoring and peaceful coexistence;
• identifying stateless people and people at risk of statelessness, and supporting the Government to revise laws in order to prevent and reduce statelessness in Mali.
Should there is a decrease in budget for UNHCR’s operation in Mali, this will have a negative impact on people of concern to the Office, particularly Malian returnees who will not be able to be provided with reintegration assistance.
