Mali field visit report for the Crisis and Support Centre (French Ministry of Foreign Affairs), 2013

18/02/2013

Immediately after Operation Serval, there was a need both to look back to draw lessons from a number of past experiences, and to look ahead at the challenges of ending the military intervention, moving from humanitarian to development action and peacebuilding, and re-establishing the social, intercommunity and political dialogue that are essential to Mali's future. The report’s recommendations and conclusions include areas to work on to prepare for the Brussels conference on reconstruction in Mali.
