The Sahel seen from the sky

2007/Week 18

Wim has been to Senegal for 10 days. From the aeroplane, you can see the dry landscape from a different angle, as on this picture near Bamako, the capital of Mali.

Harvesting onions

2007/Week 17

The vegetable growing season is about to end. For months, peasants have been working hard to irrigate their vegetable crops. Now they can sell their onions, tomatoes, potatoes and cabbages.

Tirage de plan

2007/Week 16

Joke that loses its sence in English : life in Africa is learn to "manage on one's own" (tirer son plan, se débrouiller)

Desert Dust

2007/Week 15

No tricks with orange colour filters nor photoshop. Just a sky full of dust.

Toothbrush

2007/Week 14

Being the reporters for Burkina Faso, we truly expected this question coming from Belgian children. How on earth do Burkinese children brush their teeth?

For Lassané, star in the campaign movie, you can see for yourself. He is actually using toothbrush and toothpaste.
