Abstract

Since 2012, Mali has been going through an unprecedented security crisis. Armed terrorist groups and Tuareg separatist movements in northern Mali start a war and carry out attacks against civilian populations, symbols of the State such as the administration, the army, schools, and the judicial system. In 2017, the conflict took on a new dimension in the center of the country. It becomes an intercommunity war between the Fulani and Dogon tribes. Entire villages are destroyed. Terrorists killed more than 100,000 civilians and burned dozens of SOS villages with food and livestock during violence in the center of the country. Many people become physically or mentally disabled (military and civilian). These contribute to a dizzying increase in the number of orphans in orphanages and SOS Children's Villages in Mali. Such a situation makes it difficult to provide social and educational support in the children's villages. The objective of the article is to describe the social and educational environment in which the orphans of the children's villages of Mali are socialized. To carry out this study, we set ourselves the following objectives: to determine the problem; observe the organizational and pedagogical device in place, the socio-educational activities implemented in the process of socialization of orphans in these institutions. At the end of this research, we determined the organizational and educational system set up in the SOS children's villages in Mali.
