The peace process in Mali resulted in the signature of a peace agreement in mid 2015. The aim of the peace process is to resolve the conflict underlying the armed rebellion that started in northern Mali in January 2012 and raged throughout that year, causing large refugee flows that displaced roughly one-quarter of the population in the northern regions to other parts of Mali and to neighbouring countries.
