Fulani woman

The basic survival strategy of all pastoralist groups in the Sahel is transhumance. This involves moving from areas of scarce water and pasture to more productive areas, driven by the seasonal alternation of dry and rainy seasons. In the picture, a Fulani woman with tent poles and part of her household on a donkey, central Mali.
