  • Latifa, 8, poses for a photograph at her home in Saran Maradi, Niger.<br />
Her grandmother Delou Ibrahim, 70, has four children and suffered the loss of nine. She has about 40 grandchildren, 16 of which live with her. <br />
"I've seen several crises. The famine in 1984 was the hardest. Rains were very weak. The stems of millet came out but the spikes gave no grain - nothing," she recalls. "Two years ago at least there were people who harvested millet, but this year the crops have been worse because of the drought and the leaf miners." Delou's last crop was 30kg, which only provided food for about two days.<br />
Delou and her family receive cash from CARE. "I get to buy cereal to feed my family, particularly my grandchildren." They have two daily meals, porridge in the morning and sorghum paste in the evening.
