    MALI 2018 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution prohibits religious discrimination and grants individuals freedom of religion in conformity with the law. The law criminalizes abuses against religious freedom. On January 31, the government adopted a new national Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) strategy that included interfaith efforts and promotion of religious tolerance. The Ministry of Religious Affairs and Worship was responsible for administering the national CVE strategy, in addition to promoting religious tolerance and coordinating national religious activities such as pilgrimages and religious holidays for followers of all religions. Terrorist groups used violence and launched attacks against civilians, security forces, peacekeepers, and others they reportedly perceived as not adhering to their interpretation of Islam. In the center of the country, affiliates of Jamaat Nasr al- Islam wal Muslimin (JNIM) attacked multiple towns in Mopti Region, threatening Christian, Muslim, and traditional religious communities, reportedly for heresy. Muslim religious leaders condemned extremist interpretations of sharia, and non- Muslim religious leaders condemned religious extremism. Some Christian missionaries expressed concern about the increased influence in remote areas of organizations they characterized as violent and extremist. Religious leaders, including Muslims and Catholics, jointly called for peace among all faiths at a celebration marking Eid al-Fitr in June hosted by President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita. In January Muslim, Protestant, and Catholic religious leaders called for peace and solidary among faiths at a conference organized by the youth of the Protestant community.

    tnjeux spatiaux et fonciers dans le delta intérieur du Niger (Mali) Delmasig, un SIG à vocation locale et régionale Jérôme Marie Géographe Le présent article expose brièvement quelques-uns des résultats obtenus par l'utilisation du SIG Delmasig concernant l'évolution des rizières et les relations entre espace rizicole et espace pastoral. Ce système d'information géographique est dédié à l'aide à la décision pour une gestion régionale et locale des hommes, des milieux, des enjeux spatiaux et fonciers dans le delta intérieur amont du fleuve Niger au Mali (Marie, 2000). L'espace traité couvre les plaines de la cuvette du Niger depuis, en amont, Ké- Macina sur le Niger et Baramandougou sur le Bani, jusqu'au lac Débo en aval, y compris une fraction du Farimaké au nord-ouest du lac Débo, soit une superficie totale légèrement supérieure à 22 000 km2. Les données portent sur : - les formations végétales et leur relation avec la crue, dont dérive une modélisation des surfaces inondées ; -une analyse de l'évolution des surfaces cultivées en riz entre 1952, 1975 et 1989 : la comparaison diachronique de l'emprise des cultures de riz à ces trois dates permet d'en retracer l'évolution sur une quarantaine d'années, tandis que la comparaison de l'emprise des rizières avec les formations végétales permet de mettre en 558 T Gestion intégrée des zones inondables tropicales évidence les stratégies des riziculteurs et de suivre plus particulièrement l'évolution de l'espace « des crues utiles » année par année ; -une modélisation des nouveaux cadres territoriaux
