The UN Independent Expert on the situation of human rights in Mali, Alioune Tine, will conduct an official visit to the country from 1 to 12 August 2022.

“This visit will allow me to continue the overall assessment of the human rights situation in the country and to support the Malian transitional authorities in their efforts to promote and protect human rights, as well as ensure their implementation. During this visit, I will meet with public authorities to discuss the progress made in the implementation of the commitments made on my previous recommendations, particularly in the fight against impunity”, Tine said.

During his visit to Bamako and the rest of the country, Tine will meet with Malian authorities, civil society and victims’ associations, non-governmental organisations, diplomats and United Nations agencies.
