This population is especially characterized by its youthful population (nearly 46% of Malians have less than 15 years). Poverty levels are high as 70% of inhabitants live with less than 1 dollar per day, Mali is therefore vulnerable to food and nutritional crisis. In terms of education, it is certain that without any drastic measures in place, Mali will not be able to reach Education For All, by 2015. Currently 73% of women and 64% of men are illiterate in Mali* that is why different governments have always placed education at the center of their priorities since the first years of the country’s Independence in 1960. Despite of the meaningful contributions by the Decennial Program of Development of Education, and its operational branch, PISE (Plan d’Investissement Sectoriel de l’Education) which is at its third phase, 20% of school going children still do not have access to education and Early Childhood Development system is nearly non-existent in rural areas. To worsen matters, the country is going through, a double politico-security and food crisis, since March 22, 2012 with the occupation of the three northern regions by various armed groups. It is also necessary to note the share of disasters such as floods throughout the country, caused by heavy rains have led to the occupation of some schools by populations whose houses have been damaged. The number of displaced people from the north is now estimated at 39,830 households in Mopti only - an increase from 5,332. This number could reach 200,000 displaced people by the end 2012 according to the Protection Cluster and the head Civil Protection office. Since the start of the conflict, around 25,000 children have been displaced to the south, of which 73.6% are in Mopti, Segou and Bamako. Morevoer, According to the July 2012 needs assessment report of the education cluster, 27% of displaced pupils have dropped out of school, , 212 schools are flooded, 64 occupied by flood affected families and 14 by armed groups. In addition to these factors there is inadequate knowledge on democratic values and culture and violation of child rights if rife rendering girls and even boys more vulnerable within displaced camps and host families. A recent rapid assessment conducted by a Right To Play team in Mopti, reveals that displaced children receive lot of donations in kind (food, blankets medicines etc.) but their psychosocial, emotional and social needs including the provision of sport and play based activities, hygiene and sanitation infrastructural support are yet to be addressed. Right To Play intends to provide emergency responses to these and many more critical challenges faced by children aged 3 to 15 years, especially girls, within the regions of Mopti, Segou and the district of Bamako. This project will cover a total of 6 localities which are Mopti, Sevare, Segou, Macina, Niono and Bamako for a 12 months period from January to December 2013.
