Strengthening Community Security

A capacity-building workshop in Kati united civil society, local leaders, and security forces to enhance dialogue, early warning, and conflict prevention, promoting inclusive human security for all-particularly women and youth.

With this objective in mind, the Commission for Security Sector Reform, WANEP and EUCAP Sahel Mali organized a capacity-building workshop for members of the Consultative Security Committees (CSCs) of the urban municipality of Kati.
