Fotoausstellung „Mali: Persönliche Einblicke in die humanitäre Krise“

With the photo exhibition "Mali: Personal Insights into the Humanitarian Crisis", five international humanitarian organizations want to strengthen the voices of the people on the ground and draw attention to the dramatic situation. The exhibition can be seen daily from March 21 to April 23 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Alte Münze in Berlin. Free admission.

Malian photographer Tiécoura N'Daou traveled to the Gao and Mopti regions in September 2025 to capture the lives of the people experiencing the crisis every day.

His photographs document loss, forced displacement and everyday life under the conditions of a protracted conflict. At the same time, they show resilience, dignity and the strength of the communities that persevere despite violence, insecurity and climatic shocks.

• Period: March 21 - April 23, daily 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.
• Freeadmission

Background: The humanitarian situation in Mali continues to deteriorate

The exhibition highlights the dramatic developments in the country: around 6.4 million people in Mali are dependent on humanitarian aid due to armed conflicts, forced displacement and climatic shocks. Armed groups increasingly control key transport routes, markets are destabilized and entire communities are isolated. At the same time, the current fuel crisis is leading to supply bottlenecks in hospitals, health centers and schools. Humanitarian organizations expect the situation to deteriorate further in 2026.

Joint initiative by international aid organizations

After a first stop in Brussels, the exhibition is now being shown in Berlin - organized by Action Against Hunger, International Rescue Committee, Norwegian Refugee Council, Danish Refugee Council and Doctors of the World, with financial support from the European Union and the Federal Foreign Office.
