Ouroun is a small town and commune in the Cercle of Bougouni in the Sikasso Region of southern Mali. In 1998 the commune had a population of 3,947.
The population composed mainly of three ethnic groups: Bambara, Malinkés and Fulani. Ouroun is naturally divided into two districts: Sokoundéni and Sokoumba. The first is located southeast of the city, while the second is slightly north to south. With a population almost three times larger than that of Sokoundeni, Sokoumba is also divided by its inhabitants in two parts: Kourou and Kodjou. The latter is more inhabited than the first.
