Attaques au Mali : ce que préconisent les femmes et les jeunes d’Afrique de l’Ouest et du Sahel
The crisis in Mali is a source of concern for women and young people in West Africa and the Sahel. These groups, working within the Working Group on Women, Youth, Peace and Security in West Africa and the Sahel (GTFJPS-AOS), have advocated for a comprehensive response.
It is worth recalling that the GTFJPS-AOS is a multi-stakeholder platform. Its main missions are to monitor and evaluate the effective implementation of United Nations Security Council resolutions 1325 (2000) and 2250 (2015) relating to women, youth, peace and security.
They express their deep concern about the continued deterioration of the security situation in the region, particularly in Mali and in the border areas between Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia.
In addition, these actors offered their condolences to His Excellency the President of the Republic of Mali, as well as to the women, youth and all the people of Mali, who have been severely affected by the recent violence.
For these women and young people from West Africa and the Sahel, this threat calls for a collective, coordinated, and urgent response, based on strong and operational interstate solidarity. "No isolated response can be effective in the face of insecurity that is inherently transnational," they stated.
Their declaration included a plea for convergence and complementarity of efforts between the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) and other regional frameworks, in a spirit of shared responsibility and lasting stability. They stressed the urgent need to adopt concrete, verifiable, and coordinated de-escalation measures in sensitive border areas, including strengthening communication between defense and security forces, establishing mechanisms for mutual trust, and prioritizing the protection of civilian populations.
