What to Know About Ménaka
Key Facts
Ménaka is a region of Mali, located in the northeastern part of the country. It serves as one of Mali's administrative regions and is situated in the vast Sahelian zone, characterized by semi-arid landscapes and sparse vegetation. The region covers approximately 81,040 square kilometers, making it one of the smaller regions in Mali by area, with an estimated population of around 56,000 people as of recent data. Ménaka is divided into five cercles (districts): Ménaka, Andéramboukane, Inékar, Tidermène, and Talataye, each further subdivided into communes. Geographically, it lies within the transitional zone between the Sahara Desert to the north and the more fertile savannah to the south, featuring flat plains and occasional rocky outcrops. The region's economy is primarily based on pastoralism, with nomadic herding of livestock such as cattle, goats, and camels being central to local livelihoods, alongside limited agriculture in areas with sufficient rainfall. Ménaka has historically been a crossroads for trans-Saharan trade and cultural exchange, inhabited predominantly by Tuareg and other ethnic groups.
