En Malí, en el círculo de Douentza, progresivamente los lagos se fueron desecando. Si bien ciertos pozos se encuentran dentro de los poblados, otros a veces están a varios kilómetros. Los aldeanos, apegados a sus raíces, no quieren, incluso en esas circunstancias, dejar sus tierras con cruel insuficiencia de agua, porque aquí, dice el jefe de la aldea, "somos dueños y nos sentimos invulnerables".



The lakes in the Douentza Circle in Mali have gradually dried up. While some villagers can still use their local wells, others have to walk miles into the bush for their water. Nevertheless, the villagers, who are attached to their roots, do not want to abandon their arid land, for here, according to the village chief, "we are the masters and we feel invincible".
