International Tier Group Meeting

WANEP and its consortium partners (GPPAC and HDC) held
an international tier group meeting from March 31 to April
1, 2015 under the Human Security Project in Mali. The key objective of the meeting was to discuss the five priority areas the project has identified for a human security strategy for Mali. Participants brainstormed on strategies for incorporating human security approaches for Mali on the agendas of regional actors and MINUSMA. The contributions from the meeting would be incorporated into a five-chapter publication on human security that would focus on strategies to counter violent extremism through the use of non-coercive means. The publication is expected to be released by the end of 2015.
