L’évaluation a été menée dans deux communes de chaque cercle. La mission avait pour objectifs d’avoir une idée globale des besoins et des problèmes humanitaires, spécialement dans le domaine de l’éducation, afin d’informer les décideurs pour une prise des décisions stratégiques. I. Contexte La rébellion touareg ayant abouti à l’enlisement de toutes les régions nord du pays et entrainé une crise humanitaire sans précédent au Mali, a provoqué un déplacement massif des populations de toutes les régions du nord et le retrait de tous les enseignants, les services techniques de l’Etat et les partenaires au développement. Les cercles de Goundam, Niafunké et Tombouctou ont été durement frappés par ce phénomène. Le déclenchement des hostilités au mois de janvier 2013 a davantage accentué le déplacement des populations avec leurs enfants (élèves) qui ont continué à quitter la zone du nord et du nord ouest.

Cette commune fait aussi partie de ces communes dont les populations connaissent une instabilité pendant de longues périodes de l’année : d’abord très enclavée, avec un terrain très difficile à pratiquer, et surtout la mobilité des jeunes qui sont presque à 90% à l’exode à la recherche de la survie. Toutes les personnes qui se trouvent sur le territoire de la commune présentement le sont grâce à l’assistance quotidienne de ceux qui sont à l’exode. Dans la commune il n’y a pas de sources de revenu. Il n’existe pas d’activités à mener pour se faire de l’argent. Dans des conditions de ce genre, il va de soit que la mobilisation de ressources nécessaires (humaines, financières et matérielles) sans lesquelles le développement est impossible, pose des problèmes.

Due to extraordinary conditions of insecurity at the end of the project period (IY4), a more complete final evaluation that would have included a random survey and targeted interview could not be completed. This report is based on a limited series of individual and group interviews with local Government of Mali (GoM) officials, community-based volunteers, producer organizations, and beneficiary groups in the Naifunké and Goundam Cercles in November 2013. The interviews were conducted over a five-day period (November 2-8, 2013) by an independent expert, Mr. Yacouba Sidibe, based on a USAID-approved Terms of Reference (included as Annex 5.1) and using standardized interview formats developed by a three person evaluation team working in collaboration with senior Africare/Mali program staff previously assigned to the TFSI/MYAP program.

  • Et Les Hommes Autour Du Lac Télé
    L eau, la terre et les hommes autour du lac Télé Région de Tombouctou, Mali Cissouma Diama Togola Géographe Le lac Télé fait partie de cet ensemble de lacs situés tout à fait au Nord et en rive gauche du delta intérieur du Niger. C'est une région humide aux confins du Sahara, qui a connu une histoire troublée entre éleveurs nomades et agriculteurs sédentaires, entre agriculteurs et pêcheurs, et entre les différents groupes d'éleveurs, tous se disputant la gestion des ressources naturelles que sont l'eau et les pâturages. Cette situation s'est aggravée depuis les grandes sécheresses que la région a connue en 1968 et 1972, et qui a vue l'eau du lac et les pâturages s'assécher. A cela s'ajoutent d'autres facteurs comme l'introduction des cultures de contre-saison, qui pose l'épineux problème du partage de l'espace entre les agriculteurs. Avant la sécheresse, la production était suffisante pour les besoins locaux : dès la récolte, les champs et les pâturages du lac étaient abandonnés aux éleveurs. Avec la sécheresse, la production a baissé, ce qui a fait naître chez les agriculteurs le besoin de rechercher d'autres sources de revenus ; les terres jadis abandonnées aux éleveurs sont maintenant cultivées et les recettes issues de la vente des produits de contre-saison servent à acheter les compléments de céréales nécessaires à la consommation familiale. L'assèchement des pâturages fait aussi que les éleveurs descendent plus tôt que d'habitude dans le lac. Les conflits entraînent des recours en justice qui, malheureusement, se font presque toujours 62 T Gestion intégrée des zones inondables tropicales au détriment des agriculteurs.
