In Senegal, where farming employs 70% of the population, desertification and land erosion have led to food insecurity. This video shows how researchers supported by the Climate Change Adaptation in Africa program worked with farmers to identify and implement farming strategies that protect against further desertification and improve yields under these new conditions.

Produced by A24 Media, this is part of a series of six videos on research supported by CCAA.

The Climate Change Adaptation in Africa research and capacity development program (2006-2012) was a joint initiative of Canada's International Development Research Centre and the United Kingdom's Department for International Development (DFID).

A documentary about Fulani people in South Sudan

Heroin is having a devastating effect on communities across South Africa. That's the conclusion of a study by an EU-funded project known as ENACT. A drug called Nyaope made of low-grade heroin is presenting a particular challenge. Users engage in a dangerous practice known as bluetoothing, in which the intoxicated blood of one user is injected into the veins of another. ENACT based its findings on interviews with gang members, drug dealers, users and police. They also found that the government and law enforcement are failing to tackle the problem. Some viewers may find some images in this report distressing.

"Black" vs. white but we are nowhere on the list

Because he ruled the state personally, he had total control of its resources and had to answer to no one.
