    Context and background Following the ever-increasing plethora of student numbers in the four Universities of Bamako (USJPB, USSGB, ULSHB, USTB), student violence perpetrated for this purpose at the level of all the Faculties of these structures on the one hand. And on the other hand the glaring insufficiency of educational, academic and scientific infrastructures (lecture theaters, classrooms, libraries, research laboratories, dormitories etc.) to accommodate new students each year, the Government of the Republic of Mali in partnership with the Chinese Government initiated and launched the construction and development work of the Kabala University Campus located at the western end of the city of Bamako. In doing so, these very large-scale spatial works have generated numerous land problems. We assume as a hypothesis: the construction of the Kabala university campus following evictions and demolitions led to land disputes over obtaining property titles, but also to the economic development of the villages. Goal and Objectives: Identify the various land problems generated following the construction of the Kabala University Campus. Methodology: To carry out this study we used quantitative and qualitative surveys, photography, cartography, Google Earth and observation. Results: The following results were obtained: The villages of Kabala and N'golobougou were subject to social and spatial change through the development of trade, the creation of informal jobs, and the construction of new permanent houses. Land problems such as the non-issuance of official property titles, the transformation of many agricultural fields into residential houses. All the victims of the demolitions and evictions have not been reimbursed.
