Workers have decided to build on last month's one-day strike and have called for strike action on Wednesday.

Mali: Strike by university workers

Workers at the National centre for university works (CENOU) went on strike today after management "completely ignored" their demands.

Workers launched a 72 hour stoppage on Tuesday morning, this strike follows a 48 hour stoppage two weeks ago which failed to bring management to the negotiation table. The CENOU is responsible for University transport, lodgings, food, bursaries and sanitation.
