Fred and Jamy continue their journey in West Africa and stop in Burkina Faso, where we will be able to discover the main resources and ways of life. Fred arrives in Ouagadogou and introduces us to this country where 80% of the population still lives in the countryside. Then, he takes us to a village, where families often live from generation to generation. We will see how women prepare meals outside the home, and what are the agricultural or other resources of the villagers. Fred is also interested in the schooling of children and takes us to a primary school class. We will also talk about the lack of drinking water and the desertification of the soil. Jamy explains to us what the Sahel is, how the baobab resists drought, what causes soil erosion, what is a tree for, how a family of farmers lives, how food aid can destabilize a country, etc.
