HIV seroprevalence amongst the general population of Mali has decreased from 1.7 percent in 2001 to 1.3% in 2006. However prevalence is particularly high among certain high-risk groups such as sex workers (35.3 percent). The program supported by this Round 8 grant aims to reduce the morbidity and mortality rates linked to HIV and AIDS within the general population of Mali by improving universal access to adequate services of prevention, treatment, and quality care and support, with a particular focus on prevention among vulnerable populations. The program also aims to strengthen the national coordination and assessment follow-up capacities. The program is implemented by two Principal Recipients: the Ministry of Health National High Council for the Fight against AIDS (HCNLS) and Groupe Pivot Santé Population (GPSP).

The program "Expansion of the integrated prevention and care networks of STI/HIV/AIDS in Bamako and the 8 regional capitals of Mali" has as a global objective to support measures to prevent HIV transmission, particularly in high risk groups (blood-borne, sexual and mother-to-child-transmission), and to ensure medical, psychological and socioeconomic care for persons living with HIV. The program supported by this grant targets the expansion of integrated prevention and care networks for HIV and AIDS and sexually transmitted infections in the capital and regional centers. It includes measures to prevent HIV transmission, particularly among high-risk groups, and to provide medical, psychological and socioeconomic care for persons living with HIV. The HIV and AIDS epidemic in Mali, although with a low prevalence of 1.5 percent among the adult population, is particularly affecting groups that are considered at high risk, such as sex workers; who are believed to make up one-third of all those infected.

This project will develop autonomous cooperatives in cotton areas of southern Mali, via provision of training, extension support, equipment and finance to enable diversification and more sustainable production practices, supported by national advocacy to improve the policy framework and rural investment. Economic activities of women will be promoted as well as measures to enable improved literacy, security of land tenure and access to finance for this group, which in turn will increase their access to decision making at local level.
The Malian National Action Plan of Adaptation to climate change highlights the high vulnerability of rural small farmers who constitute main beneficiaries of the Oxfam Cotton programme. Beyond the need to understand the nature of this vulnerability and to make an assessment of the possible adaptation options, this project of research -development will lead to a better information, education and communication campaign on climate change and its adverse effects. This project will also experiment in the best sustainable practices on adaptation to climate change such as mutual insurance, early mature crop seeds and water harvesting.
The overall objective of the project is to increase the ability of Oxfam GB to better respond to recurrent food crisis in Gao, north of Mali. The adopted strategies are investment in analysis and human resources. The results coming out of the major research activity of the project, the Household Economy Analysis (HEA) supplemented by the Cost of the Diet, are going to be used as baseline data for future programming and proposal development.
In 2007/2008 the Ministry of Education reported that in Gao regions rates of enrolment were 96.1%. In Gao region, poor health and child malnutrition rates are alarmingly high. A lack of safe drinking water, inadequate sanitation facilities and poor health awareness, as well as inadequate access to education facilities all contributes. This project aims to improve access to clean water for school children and local villagers and improve the learning environment in the poorest. Its a continuing project during 4 years.
This project will permit the completion of the planning stage of the next phase of advocacy work to support the provision of more and better basic services in Mali. Oxfam Great Britain – and other Oxfam affiliates in Mali and working with the Essential Services campaign - has made a clear decision to not only support the provision of basic services, but to also reinforce the capacity of local actors to understand their rights and access decision makers.
Oxfam GB in partnership with Save the Children US and the Institute of Rural Economics proposes an action that aims to globally reinforce resilience capacity of the poorest rural population to cope with the rising food prices, therefore contributing to fight against hunger in Mali. The project will target specifically poor and very poor households in the regions of Gao and Sikasso to enhance and secure access to food. It involves direct actions (cash transfers, sale subsidy of animal fodder, seeds production, regeneration of the pasture, trainings, etc), a Household Economy Analysis, results learning & dissemination and advocacy.
This 4 years project aims to improve access to clean water and sanitaion for school children and improve the learning environment in 89 schools of Kati district. It's part of the ""integrated Water and education project"" funded by Top Project for 10 schools as well as partof WASH in Schools project funded by Dubai Cares. It has been created to manage funds for the 75 schools in Kati district. It will be managed by the Education programme coordinator based in Bamako. Overall MEL system of the project will be managed by UNICEF and implemented by the MEL officer in a participatory process.
This project will generate new evidence on rural women's effective collective action in agricultural markets in Mali, to improve practice in Oxfam and partners' programmes. In Koulikoro and Sikasso regions, and nationally, stakeholder dialogues will other communication channels will engage key actors and promote evidence based innovation. Funding for the initiative is secured from Gates Foundation.
This project aims to mitigate the current critical food insecurity of extremely vulnerable agro -pastoralist and pastoralist households affected by agriculture gazing land, water and fodder deficit in the Gao region through targeted free distribution of food and aliment feed throughout the hunger gap. This is the second emergency response in Mali within the year, as the interventions and policies are not relevant to the crisis and can't have a long term impact. This project will have a communication and advocacy component to make sure that there is enough coordination and appropriate actions from the donors and the government. SCO3.1.
The purpose of this project is to build up the humanitarian capacity and capabilities of Oxfam staff and partners as well as allies and key players in Mali. It includes humanitarian preparedness and responses, assessments, research within the Sahel region, networking and influence (advocacy). The purpose of this projectt is also to drive responses when until capacity is sufficient.
This project covers the capacity building activities linked to the campaign. Thus is it foreseen to create and advocacy and rights manual adapted to the Malian context as well as carry out training and accompaniment of CS partners around these themes. This project also covers general functioning costs of the OI Advocacy Manager and international liaison.
This project is for the response to the food crisis in Temera and Taboye communes in Gao, where we have the most households affected by the bad agriculture campaign of 2011 -2012 as well as the greatest number of returnees from Lybia. From this project, 2,200 households will benefit from unconditional cash transfers and cash for work activities. 100 women groups will be targeted by the sensitisation activities and training on malnutrition risk prevention. 100 members from livestock cooperatives will participate in sensitisation and capacity building on livestock destocking.
Within the wider framework of Oxfam Mali's education campaigning work with its local partners, in particular the National Education for All Coalition, this project aims to capitalise on the opportunity of the 2012 Presidential and Legislative elections to promote political change around key issues in essential services, especially education. The project will support local partners to coalesce around a campaign which will involve lobbying of election candidates to adopt pledges on essential services issues, public mobilisation and follow up work to monitor election candidates.
This project is set to launch the OI response to the food crisis in Kayes. It aims to help mitigate the risks and shocks of the food insecurity in the most vulnerable communities in Kayes region. The response focuses on 3 phases: - One aiming at strengthening resilience and avoiding the depletion of the livelihoods assets of the very poor and poor families; - one during the lean period aiming at increasing the access to food and the fight against malnutrition; - and an early recovery of the most vulnerable families. Advocacy, coordination and monitoring complete these actions.
The project aims to set up a sustainable network of professionals working in the area of social sciences to share experiences and generate a collective knowledge on of food security in cotton producing areas of western and central Africa. More specially, this will be achieved through: creating analytical capitalization tools; communicating widely on the tools; training on scientific publication; diffusion of project findings; and finally creating a discussion space between researchers and practitioners. This project continues from MLIA51.
This to design a project that will look at quality of Oxfam intervention in Mali with the underlying hypothesis that ""Oxfam is using the opportunity of SMS to acheiving greater and better impacts from its interventions by 2015
The project will contribute to a sustainable improvement of food and nutrition security of 5000 poor and very poor households in the districts of Kayes and Yelimane affected by the food crisis in 2012. The project is a continuation of MLIA90 that accounted for the response to the food crisis in Kayes. This project will now take up the recovery phase for the most vulnerable households affected by the crisis, and will subsequently help them improve their resilience.
This project aims at meeting the most vulnerable households' needs resulting from the recent Mali food and security crises, as well as cholera outbreak. This will be achieved through a) strengthening the resilience capacity of the vulnerable households; b) increasing the access to food (both for human and animal consumption); c) promoting the early recovery and the transition towards longer term livelihoods activities; d) improving communities' access to essential services; and e) increasing the local authorities' capacity to respond to cholera outbreaks when these occur.
This project is a solidarity contribution of £20,000 to Caritas Mali’s emergency appeal EA 04/2012. Mali, like many other countries in the Sahel region, is facing a serious food and nutrition crisis. The 2011/2012 agricultural season was characterized by inadequate and unequal distribution of rain, causing a sharp drop in cereal production and a fodder deficit. The conflict that began towards the end of 2011 has increased the vulnerability and suffering of rural populations already severely affected by the food and nutrition crisis. According to the Malian Government, 3.47 million people are at risk or in severe food insecurity and 1.13 million people are in moderate food insecurity, mostly women and children. The nutritional situation has also deteriorated, and global acute malnutrition rates have reached a critical level in Timbuktu, Gao, Kayes and Koulikoro regions. Caritas Mali developed a response strategy in January 2012 and Caritas Internationalis released the Mali Emergency Appeal 04/2012 in January 2012. The EA was updated in March 2012 to take into consideration activities undertaken by other Caritas agencies in Mali (CRS, Caritas Germany and Caritas Switzerland). CAFOD has decided to focus on Niger for its response to the West Africa Sahel food crisis. Nevertheless, as discussed in IEG on 21st June 2012, CAFOD also wants to express its solidarity to other Caritas agencies and affected populations in the region, and decided to make an un-earmarked solidarity grant towards the Mali EA 04 2012 of £ 20,000. The emergency response project (see the project framework for further details) spans across the five dioceses of Kaye, Bamako, Sikasso, Segou and Mopti, and is built around the following activities: Free Food Distribution ; Sales of grain at a subsidised price ; Support to village cereal banks ; FFW ; Distribution of seeds (cereals) ; Distribution of seeds (shallots) to farmers associations.
Le projet aura pour objectifs spécifiques d'augmenter la production de canne et de sucre et de valoriser ses sous-produits
L'objectif sectoriel du projet est de renforcer l'intégration régionale et soutenir la stratégie de croissance et de désenclavement du Mali Le projet a comme objectif spécifique d'accroître la mobilité urbaine dans la ville de Bamako, de contribuer à la promotion de services de transport efficaces et accessibles le long de l'axe routier Bamako-Kankan et d'améliorer le niveau de vie des populations de la zone d'influence.
1.4.1,,L'objectif global du projet est de contribuer à l'amélioration de la situation socio-économique du pays et à la réduction de la pauvreté grâce à une meilleure connaissance des ressources et leur gestion intégrée. 1.4.2,,Les objectifs spécifiques du projet sont les suivants : i) renforcer les capacités de gestion de l'information et des données sur l'eau et ii) améliorer l'allocation des ressources entre les différents secteurs en tenant compte de la valeur économique de l'eau et des préoccupations transfrontalières. 1.4.3,,Le renforcement des capacités de gestion de l'information et des données sur l'eau permettra une meilleure maitrise des effets négatifs et la valorisation des effets positifs des changements climatiques sur les différents secteurs d'usage de l'eau et essentiellement le secteur agricole. .
Le but ultime du Programme est de contribuer à consolider la croissance et à accélérer la réduction de la pauvreté. Les ressources du Programme aideront le GdM à maintenir la viabilité du cadre macroéconomique et à exécuter le budget annuel conformément aux priorités qui ont été arrêtées. Les objectifs opérationnels du Programme sont : (i) l'amélioration du recouvrement des recettes fiscales ; (ii) le renforcement de la transparence dans la passation des marchés publics ; (iii) la fiabilité de la reddition des comptes publics et (iv) l'accélération de la décentralisation. La mobilisation optimisée des ressources intérieures est en ligne avec la volonté du GdM de tendre progressivement vers une meilleure prise en charge au niveau national, du financement des programmes de développement et de réduction de la pauvreté. Le Mali regorge de potentialités fiscales encore inexploitées, notamment dans le domaine du foncier et le secteur informel. Quant à la transparence dans la GFP, elle est déterminante pour obtenir la confiance des contribuables et une plus grande efficacité de la dépense publique. Au-delà de l'amélioration des ressources propres de l'Etat et de la transparence dans la gestion des dépenses publiques, les mesures retenues par le PASCRP II auront également une incidence positive sur l'environnement du secteur privé. Il s'agit notamment de la réduction des distorsions contenues dans le système fiscal malien et du renforcement de la concurrence dans la passation des marchés publics. La troisième composante du Programme porte sur une plus grande responsabilisation des collectivités territoriales dans la gestion du développement. Les réformes prévues dans le cadre du Programme visent à s'assurer que l'amélioration des ressources de l'Etat profitera effectivement aux populations à travers une accélération des transferts de ressources et de compétences aux élus locaux. Ces transferts devront être accompagnés d'un appui renforcé de l'Etat à travers ses services déconcentrés.

In Mali, malaria is endemic amongst more than 90 percent of the population. The overall goal of the program supported by this grant is to contribute to the reduction of illness and death linked to malaria in Mali. The main activity implemented in this grant comprises the acquisition and distribution of insecticide-treated nets to pregnant women and children under the age of 5 with the aim of significantly contributing to the reduction of malaria among these biologically vulnerable groups. Important behavioral community change activities are also being implemented to support the preventive component addressed by this grant.
HIV seroprevalence amongst the general population of Mali has decreased from 1.7 percent in 2001 to 1.3% in 2006. However prevalence is particularly high among certain high-risk groups such as sex workers (35.3 percent). The program supported by this Round 8 grant aims to reduce the morbidity and mortality rates linked to HIV and AIDS within the general population of Mali by improving universal access to adequate services of prevention, treatment, and quality care and support, with a particular focus on prevention among vulnerable populations. The program also aims to strengthen the national coordination and assessment follow-up capacities. The program is implemented by two Principal Recipients: the Ministry of Health National High Council for the Fight against AIDS (HCNLS) and Groupe Pivot Santé Population (GPSP).
In Mali, malaria is endemic amongst more than 90 percent of the population. The overall goal of the program supported by this grant is to contribute to the reduction of illness and death linked to malaria in Mali. The main activities of the program are intended to add value to efforts already in progress in the country, notably through the purchase and distribution of artemisinin-based combination therapy in response to high resistance to the drug chloroquine that has reached alarming levels. The grant also aims to support training activities for the health workers; and to improve the capacities of the National Program to fight Malaria (PNLP) to achieve its coordinating role at the national level.
In Mali, malaria is endemic amongst more than 90 percent of the population. The overall goal of the program supported by this grant was to reduce malaria-related illness and death by at least 25 percent. Grant funds have enabled the strengthening of capacity for early and proper malaria case management at home as well as in health facilities; increase the use of insecticide-treated nets at the community level, targeting pregnant women and children under 5 through a social marketing approach; design and execute a communication campaign aimed at behavior change; and train health staff.
Mali is a low-income country with a high prevalence of TB and a low detection rate. The program "Strengthening the case management of Tuberculosis according to the DOTS Strategy" supported by this grant aims to decrease TB-related illness and death in Mali and to mitigate the social and economic impact of the disease. The program targets TB-infected individuals and their families, as well as those co-infected with HIV.

This project paper seeks the approval of the Executive Directors to provide an additional financing to the Mali Rural Community Development Project in the amount of a US$ 11.2 million International Development Association (IDA) credit through the Pilot Crisis Response Window (CRW). The processing of this additional financing also includes an extension of the project closing date of the project for 12 months from June 17, 2012 to June 17, 2013, a reallocation of credit proceeds among categories and a revision of the results framework. Additional activities will support rural community-based organizations affected by the recent financial crisis and the lingering of the food and oil price crises. The project will help social associations and productive organizations restore and strengthen their capacities in managing and delivering social and productive services to community and rural producer members. In compliance with OP/BP13.20, the additional financing is consistent with the original project development objective (PDO) and will help implement additional and expanded activities that up-scale the project's impact and development effectiveness. So far project implementation has been fully satisfactory as confirmed by the recent mid-term review concluded in June 2010. No major changes are proposed to the project institutional set-up and implementation arrangements.
The development objective of the Additional Financing for the Agricultural Competitiveness and Diversification Project (ACDP) for Mali is to foster improvements in the performance of value chains for a range of agricultural and livestock products for which Mali has strong comparative advantage. The Additional Financing (AF) will help finance the costs associated with the scaling up of ACDP activities, with a view to securing a higher level of Development Objective (DO) achievements over an additional two-year project implementation period. The AF will enhance the project impact by expanding its coverage to a larger group of emerging market oriented to very small enterprises and Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in project-targeted agriculture and livestock Value Chains (V/Cs). The AF focus will be on: 1) the Innovation and Investment Fund (IIF), a recipient operated financial credit line which, by extending additional matching grants for investment subprojects, will serve to disseminate innovations already demonstrated by the project; 2) continued building and strengthening of V/C Inter-Professional Organizations (IPOs); 3) facilitation of access to funding by the very small enterprises and SMEs supported by the project; and 4) completion and expansion of the commercial infrastructure program.
The National Rural Infrastructure Program Project for Mali aims to reduce poverty and improve the livelihood of the rural population by accelerating the provision, and enhancing the sustainability, of basic rural infrastructure in irrigation and transport; output markets and social services; and water supply and sanitation. The project has two 5-year phases and is supported through an Adaptable Program Loan (APL). The project has five main components in the first phase. The first component pilots a capital cost recovery mechanism; promotes private irrigation investments on large-scale schemes; improves irrigation infrastructure management; and promotes cost reduction by strengthening local private sector/nongovernmental organizational capacity. The second component sets up an autonomously managed road authority to conduct routine maintenance on the main network and feeder roads; and elaborates a national rural transport strategy. The third component helps construct water supply and sanitation facilities and provides community education activities. It also provides training to construct on-site sanitation systems for households, schools, and health centers; and improves sanitation conditions and hygienic practices. The capacity-building sub-component supports local governments, private sector/NGO providers, and public sector agencies. The fourth component implements environmental action plans. The fifth component sets up the agency for rural works and equipment (AGETIER).
The Regional Hydropower Development Project's main objectives are to: (i) reduce the long-term cost of electricity supply to the 3 countries; (ii) contribute to meeting debt service associated with the building of the Manantali dam; (iii) contribute to increasing the efficiency and reliability of power systems; (iv) establish an effective organization to construct and operate the project facilities and to mitigate environment and health impacts of the projects and the Manantali dam; (v) promote competitive private sector participation; and (vi) support the traditional agricultural sector downstream through the rational management of the Manantali reservoir. The project's components are as follows: 1) power station including civil works, electromechanical equipment, step-up substation, and reinforcement works; 2) transmission system comprising transmission lines and a dispatching center; 3) construction supervision; 4) institutional strengthening including studies, training, procurement of equipment and other support; and 5) Project Preparation Facility Advance refinancing.
The objective of the Household Energy and Universal Access Project (HEURA) is to support the Government of Mali's efforts to increase access of isolated low income populations to basic energy services to help achieve economic growth and poverty reduction targets, including those linked with the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Mali still has a very low rural electrification access rate. According to the National Directorate of Energy (DNE), in 2007 only about 17 percent of the population has access to electricity. In urban areas the access rate is about 30 percent and it is about 7 percent in rural areas. These low access rates are not allowing Mali to fully harness its economic potentials to compete fairly on international markets. Most rural households meet their lighting and small power needs with kerosene, dry cell, and car batteries. They do not have any form of modern energy for lighting or for operating equipment. A spectrum of innovative service delivery mechanisms is needed with the active participation of communities, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), and the private sector. Progress made in the last four years through the HEURA project should be sustained not only to ensure an increasing number of connections but also to ensure that energy services are impacting the competitiveness of small and medium size enterprises and social programs. This additional financing is intended to mainly finance energy services delivery sub-projects (both bottom up and top down) consistent with its initial development objective. The successful experience o f the spontaneous bottom up projects under HEURA has demonstrated the potential for energy services delivery schemes in rural Mali led by local private operators. This experience needs to be sustained by adequate and predictable financing to avoid loosing the momentum created. The bottom up rural electrification approach needs to be complemented by large scale projects which have greater scaling up potential in the sense that they can deliver the majority o f connections in the long run.
The objectives of the Transport Corridors Improvement Project for Mali are to: (a) enhance international transport through improvement of transport corridors linking Mali to the coastal countries of West Africa by rail and road respectively; and (b) sustain accessibility of the northern regions of the Borrower's territory. The main reasons for the changes are to: (i) fund a contract overrun on Bamako - Bougouni road works, which are being successfully executed; (ii) reduce road works on Sevare - Gao from 407 km to an aggregate 85 km of the most deteriorated sections to continue to meet the objective of providing land access to the northern region; and (iii) extend the project closing date to complete the works on Sevare - Gao road agreed within the restructured project.
The objective of the Growth Support Project for Mali is 'to improve the investment climate, with a focus on reducing the cost of doing business and on fostering growth contribution from high potential sectors, including mining, tourism and crafts, and telecommunications'. The restructuring aims to address the management weaknesses observed in the implementation of the project to date and to recalibrate several project components in light of changed circumstances. The restructuring involves: (i) strengthening overall project management structure; (ii) strengthening project financial management; (iii) streamlining project monitoring and evaluation; (iv) strengthening procurement processes; (v) streamlining investment climate component; (vi) focusing airports of Mali component on the development of a public-private partnership (PPP) for airports of Mali; (vii) streamlining implementation of industrial zone component; (viii) strengthening implementation arrangements for tourism component; (ix) expanding handicraft component; (x) implementing new development of financial services component; (xi) implementing enterprises support services component through multi-donor fund for support services to small and medium enterprises (SMEs); and (xii) streamlining mining component. As a result of the restructuring, the project is expected to achieve its intended development outcome, as revised, to create the conditions for increased private investment through investment climate reforms, improved access to financial services, and the provision of non-financial services to private enterprises.
The development objective of the Fostering Agricultural Productivity Project for Mali is to increase the productivity of smallholder agricultural and agribusiness producers in the targeted production systems and project areas. The major changes agreed on with the Government consist of: 1) streamlining the institutional set up to make it more efficient and foster effective coordination while empowering implementing agencies; 2) reducing the project scope resulting from the loss of the European Union-Trust Fund (EU-TF) while ensuring that key project Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) indicators are well aligned with the development objective which is still relevant; and 3) reallocating International Development Association (IDA) credit to ensure that remaining project activities are fully funded. The reallocation will keep the same activities to be financed by the project. The closing date of the IDA financing agreement remains unchanged. The closing date of the EU food crisis rapid response facility TF grant agreement was April 30, 2012 with a disbursement of 1,389,830 SDR (US$ 2,105,800).
The objective of the Emergency Social Safety Nets Project for Mali is to provide targeted cash transfers to the poor and food insecure households and to establish building blocks for a national safety net system in Mali. This project will provide much needed financial assistance to poor and food insecure households while helping to protect human capital and laying the foundation for a national safety net system for the whole country for the medium-and long-term. In the short term, the project will finance cash transfers to increase and smooth food consumption of poor households and improve their ability to cope with shocks, while enhancing and protecting the human capital accumulation of their children. In parallel, the project will help to start setting-up parameters of an effective national safety net system which in the medium-and long-term could protect households in absence of shocks but could also be scaled-up in times of crisis. Some of the lessons learned includes: (i) a strong institutional framework for social protection policy is necessary for setting-up a safety net system; (ii) sustainable strategies to support chronically food-insecure households require among others, regular cash transfers for periods of at least between 24 to 36 months; (iii) rigorous Management Information System (MIS) can inform strategic decision-making; and (iv) good targeting is necessary to provide support to those who are most in need.
