PORTRAITS are about people and what they do with their lives. They are about the kind of house a person lives in and how they decorate it; about what kind of work they do and where they do it; about the surroundings they choose and the things they surround themselves with.

ICRC Migration - Thousands of young sub-Saharan Africans come to Niger in an attempt to cross north to Libya or Algeria, with the ambition of migrating to Europe in search of a better life. The reality is that many never reach their destination. Some are trapped in ghettos for lack of financial means, while others perish in the desert. Or they are abused by smugglers, or robbed by criminals of all kinds operating in this northern part of the country. By chance or miracle, a truck or military patrol finds them alone in the desert.

VIDEO : Niger's education system is in a critical state. This is the conclusion reached by the government and its technical and financial partners during the mid-term evaluation of the sectoral program (PSEF). The majority of children completing a cycle of study do not master the expected competencies in French and mathematics (source: PSEF mid-term evaluation). In line with the approach adopted by Niger, the LIRE program of the International Development Association (IDA)-World Bank Group aims to improve the quality of teaching and learning conditions in selected regions, and to strengthen the planning and management of the education system.

Play is also a privileged time of observation to identify children in psychological distress. A game is magic: it is a universal language. It allows the child to say many things without speaking. A child is never equipped to face a war or a natural disaster. He needs psychosocial assistance to move forward. He can get it from his parents, but also from support by these animators.
