Description

Hanura Awalay has lived in Gobablay village her whole life. A mother of nine, since the death of one of her sons she has single-handedly raised five of her grandchildren – a task made all the more difficult by an increasingly punishing climate:

“Here we are agro-pastoralists – farmers who also keep livestock. We depend on rain-fed crops but in the last few years drought has come frequently and led to crop failure. I used to have 100 sheep and goats – but now I have less than 30.

“Livestock are our capital, but they are dying. There’s no forage, no grain, nothing for them to eat during the dry season. Because of the drought, everything is scarce. We don’t know what to do. We are waiting for Allah from the sky.”
