Map of MaliDuring the first six weeks, students will stay with host families in the capital, Bamako.

The SST office notes that because of relatively modest communication infrastructure, updates from Mali are anticipated to be less frequent than other SST sites, and may, or may not have accompanying photos. We invite you to re-visit the retrospective website from last summer's 2000 Mali SST unit.
