IFE Mali announces its Sini Vulnerable Girls' Education Program to re-enroll young women who left school for artisanal gold mining. Since 2015, the program has helped 300 children return to education in disadvantaged Malian communities.
-- IFE Mali has announced new details regarding their Sini Vulnerable Girls' Education Program, an initiative focused on the re-enrollment of girls and young women who have been forced out of education. The program specifically targets girls who have abandoned school to work in artisanal gold mines, providing scholarships and comprehensive support to help them return to education and thrive in academic environments.

Launched in 2015 in the Koulikoro region, the Sini program has helped nearly 300 children return to school, demonstrating its sustained impact on local communities. The program forms part of IFE Mali's broader mission to advance the fundamental rights of women and children in disadvantaged communities throughout Mali, with particular attention to those affected by economic hardship and limited educational access.
IFE Mali, founded in 2012, operates in multiple regions, including Koulikoro, Gao, Ségou, Sikasso, Kayes, Mopti, Tombouctou, and Bamako. The nonprofit organization has expanded from its initial focus on combating child malnutrition to include education and rights promotion initiatives that address multiple aspects of community development and individual empowerment.
Beyond the Sini program, IFE Mali manages the Men for Women Champions project, which engages men in promoting gender equality with backing from Mali's administrative authorities and the British Embassy. The organization also conducts computer literacy programs that teach basic skills to rural children, increasing their future opportunities and occupying them productively after school hours.
IFE Mali has demonstrated success with vocational training for vulnerable populations as well. A project launched in October 2022 provided internally displaced and refugee women with soap-making training, resulting in income increases of approximately 18,000 CFA per month per participant within eight months of implementation.
The Sini program corresponds with the United Nations' findings on the positive impact of education in impoverished areas. By supporting re-enrollment and education, IFE Mali works to create meaningful change for vulnerable girls and their communities, addressing both immediate educational needs and long-term community development goals.
The organization maintains active communication with supporters through social media platforms and participates in high-level forums to raise awareness about its mission and achievements. IFE Mali also recognizes individual accomplishments within its community, highlighting the contributions of volunteers and participants.
Donations for the Sini Vulnerable Girls' Education Program are currently being accepted. For additional information about IFE Mali and its programs, visit https://ife-ml.org/
