Ce Bien Mixte du Pays dogon a été inscrit au double titre des critères V et VII relatif à l’inscription des biens: V pour la valeur culturelle et VII pour la valeur naturelle. La gestion du site est assurée par une structure déconcentrée de proximité créée en 1993, relevant de la Direction Nationale du Patrimoine Culturel (DNPC) du Département de la Culture. 1. Résumé analytique du rapport Le site « Falaises de Bandiagara » (Pays dogon) est soumis à une rude épreuve occasionnée par la crise sociopolitique et sécuritaire du Mali enclenchée depuis 2012. Cette crise a pris une ampleur particulière dans la Région de Mopti et sur ledit site marqué par des tensions et des conflits armés intercommunautaires entre les Dogons et les Peuls. Un des faits marquants de la crise au Pays dogon est l’attaque du village d’Ogossagou le 23 mars 2019, un village situé à environ 15 km de Bankass, qui a causé la mort de plus de 150 personnes et endommagé, voire détruit des biens mobiliers et immobiliers.

  • Décentralisation Et Reformulation Des Traditions En Pays Dogon Les Manifestations Culturelles Des Communes De Dourou Et Sangha
    Décentralisation et reformulation des traditions en pays dogon Les manifestations culturelles des communes de Dourou et Sangha Anne Doquet Anthropologue Chercher à rapprocher la tradition et la décentralisation en pays dogon peut sembler illusoire. Ce lien ténu est en effet difficilement perceptible, autant dans les discours des tenants du pouvoir tradi- tionnel, qui décrivent leurs activités comme totalement indépendan- tes des affaires communales, que dans les observations concrètes, les mouvements des traditions étant d’autant moins palpables que le processus est récent. Néanmoins, l’usage politique de la tradition n’est plus à démontrer1. En pays dogon, à la question de l’évolu- tion des traditions induite par l’instauration des communes, il est généralement répondu : aucune, ce n’est pas le « chemin » de la mairie. Cette stricte dissociation, qui traduit d’une part la volonté des responsables coutumiers de conserver leur légitimité face à l’arrivée d’un nouveau type de pouvoir et d’autre part, la suspicion des villageois à l’égard de la récente mairie, reste pourtant à creu- ser. Les découpages communaux peuvent en effet induire des scis- sions entre des villages auparavant liés par des affinités rituelles. Dans la région de Bandiagara c’est par exemple le cas du village de Pélou, qui partageait jusqu’alors ses cérémonies funéraires avec 1Voir notamment l’article de Jacky Bouju (1996, Tradition et identité. La tradition dogon entre traditionalisme rural et néo-traditionalisme urbain. Enquête, 2 : 96-117). 304 ▼ Décentralisation et pouvoirs en Afrique celui de Kamba, mais qui compte désormais s’en séparer du fait de l’appartenance de ce dernier à une autre commune.

The project is Innova­ tive in that it is the first attempt in the Sahelian zone (rainfall 400-600 mm annually) of Mali to carry out a projett in village sylviculture. Initiated in June 1981 with a proposed duration of 5 years, the project's goal is to contri­ bute to the rehabilitation of Mall's renewable resource base and thereby improve and protect the well-being of the rural population. Village level reforestation interventions provided for under the project will also contribute to the GRM's efforts to check the current trend toward environmental degradation marked by loss of natural vegetative cover and its wildlife habitat together with accelerated soil erosion.
