    On 25 March 2020, the first cases of COVID-19 were reported in Mali, in a context already marked by a security crisis and where the Government had just declared a state of emergency due to the deteriorating food security and nutrition situation. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, agricultural production in the country was affected by increased conflict caused by armed groups and intercommunity clashes, in the northern and central regions. During the 2017/18 and 2018/19 agricultural seasons, adverse weather conditions also led to large fodder deficits in the Sahelian strip, thus increasing the pressure on fodder resources. Following the first cases of COVID-19 reported in Mali, the Government put in place a series of urgent and essential health‑related containment measures, including border closures, a curfew for two weeks, no gatherings of more than 50 people and closed all schools. While market activity and movement of goods have not been restricted, logistical constraints and delays have accumulated. For many rural households, the pandemic and related necessary restrictions took place during a key period (April–June) with the harvesting of irrigated rice, the preparation of fields and the return of transhumant herders In the framework of FAO’s Corporate COVID-19 Response and Recovery Programme and the United Nations Global Humanitarian Response Plan for COVID-19, FAO has revised its humanitarian response for 2020 to mitigate the effects of the pandemic and address the needs of the most vulnerable households.

    FAO in the 2019 humanitarian appeals

    Also available in:

    Throughout 2018, persistent insecurity in Mali and the effects of natural disasters led to destruction of infrastructure, the disruption of livelihood and forced displacement, resulting in limited access to basic social services and putting additional pressure on already limited resources, exacerbating vulnerabilities. For 2019, FAO is appealing for USD 16.9 million to support 570 000 people to restore their food production and livelihoods.

    Mali: Humanitarian Response Plan 2023 2023
    Also available in:

    Mali faces a severe humanitarian crisis driven by years of armed conflict, climatic hazards and high staple food prices. Acute food insecurity is expected to increase by 30 percent during the lean season (June–August) and include 1 671 people in Catastrophe (Cadre Harmonisé Phase 5). Nine out of ten Malians affected by hunger are in rural areas, where people need urgent assistance to protect and revive food production. For example, vegetable production support provides families nutritious food and income, with every USD 1 invested yielding four times its value in harvests.
