Conférence Unité National et fête mariage

public mélangé




Conférence Unité National - craintes et espoirs au Hotel Wissal organisé par le Collectif des Cadres Mauritaniens Expatriés (CCME). Interessante mais ils ont oublié d'inviter des femmes et des jeunes.
Les hommes présentes, la majorité de grands-pères, n'ont pas pensé à amener avec eux leurs enfants ou conjoints.

mots du présidente -diaspora. Présence d'Abdel Wedoud Ould Cheikh et Ousmane Kane, naturellement né à Tekane


comme toujours les cameras devant la scène
Lalla Aicha et l'anthropologue Maria Cardeira

public at conference at the IFM
Its winter in Mauritania temperatures at night time have been going down to 12ºC, cold for our standard when we're used to have temperatures a lot higher. Socks became important elements of protection.

Not many women present (the Mauritanian public its in majority male) but the remark about women's status in society and the myth that they have special standards in Mauritania was well questioned by this lady in pink.

Travelling across the Sahara, sharing time with the nomads

Jean-Pierre Valentin, Dires Nomades à Nouakchott
The French ethnographe, Jean-Pierre Valentin came to Nouakchott to talk about the Sahara desert and spending time with nomadic/pastoral groupes like the Tuaregs, the Moors and the Mbororo (Fulani). Crossing enormous areas through Mauritania, Mali and Niger by car or by camel caravan. He documents his work through photography and film and you can find excerpts in his website.




Time and space loose their boundaries and silence and the magique of sounds became magical. listening to him the small groupe of people attending the event was spellbound.
