About this project

In recent years rainfall was scarce and the groundwater table was sinking. So today there is nearly no drinking water available and during the dry season the village had been without access to water for weeks.
Bernadette Thiaw, born in Fandene but living in Karlsruhe since 2006, is a member of the nonprofit organisation „Partnerschaft Westafrika e.V.
Over the past years the situation in her home village worsened. Once a fertile region Fandene today is a try and barren steppe. The water level sunk and the fountains needed to go deeper, thereby enforced the process of desertification. A lot of people thus started migration into cities.
That’s why Bernadette Thiaw tries to help her home village by building a water pipe and ensuring the daily drinking water supply.
Bernadette Thiaw has already collected some money, but the villagers of Fandene are too poor to bear the remaining costs on their own.
The nonprofit organization „Partnerschaft Westafrika e.V.“ wants to support the people of Keur Daouda Fandene and make the waterpipe possible!
