Soutien à la stabilisation de la région du Liptako-Gourma (Sahel) Considérée comme l¿épicentre de l'instabilité au Sahel, le Liptako-Gourma, région frontalière entre le Mali, le Burkina Faso et le Niger, continue de faire l'objet d'attaques de groupes extrémistes violents et de violences intercommunautaires. De nombreux civils sont contraints d'abandonner leurs foyers, ce qui augmente le nombre de réfugiés et de personnes déplacées dans la région. Pour endiguer cette situation, les conclusions du Sommet du G5 Sahel à N¿Djamena du 16 février 2021 ont appelé à un « sursaut civil » pour assurer le retour de l¿administration publique, des services de sécurité et services de base ainsi que pour restaurer la confiance entre les populations locales et les autorités étatiques. Dans ce contexte, cette action vise à favoriser la stabilisation de la région, en soutenant le retour de l¿État, des administrations et des services de base au profit des populations dans les zones vulnérables ciblées. Par le biais de la Facilité de stabilisation pour la région du Liptako-Gourma, initiée par les Nations Unies, l¿action appuiera la coopération régionale et transfrontalière pour la stabilisation de la zone du Liptako-Gourma et soutiendra le (ré)établissement de l'autorité de l'État en aidant les autorités locales et nationales à fournir des services de base essentiels. Elle contribuera également à relancer les économies locales, en mettant l'accent sur le rôle joué par les femmes dans la création et le maintien des moyens de subsistance.&nbsp;
