This project aims to address gender expertise capacity gaps within the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) by supporting two MINUSMA gender advisors, located in regional offices. The armed conflict in Mali has had a dramatic impact on women and children, contributing to an increased need to fully incorporate gender considerations at all levels. Integrating gender considerations, as well as promoting and implementing the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) Agenda are part of the MINUSMA mandate, and are necessary for a more effective peace operation.

Global Affairs Canada

The expected outcome for this project includes the improved implementation of the WPS mandate across all MINUSMA functions and components in Mali.

Peace and Stabilization Operations

The Peace and Stabilization Operations Program (PSOPs) is an integral component of the Government of Canada’s toolbox to prevent and respond to conflicts and crises abroad. It supports rapid, effective, whole-of-government coordinated responses to a wide range of challenges and serves as a valuable instrument for supporting stability in conflict-affected regions. PSOPs provides visible and concrete assistance in response to conflicts and crises abroad through targeted programming, the deployment of Canadian police officers (in partnership with Public Safety Canada and the RCMP) and civilian personnel, and direct support to the UN and multilateral peace operations, conflict prevention, mediation, and peacebuilding efforts.
