In Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso, live more than 7000 street children rough on sidewalks and in small shelters. Most of the time drugged by sniffing glue. Some are orphans. Some escaped poor provinces hoping to find fortune. Many passed by Koran schools. Parents sent their children to Koranic schools, so the child gets education and food. Many Koran teachers take profit from the children, who have to beg on the streets dressed in white clothes. They search for another community, on the streets. The children help each other and are organized in loose groups with elders taking care of younger ones. They are very vulnerable to violence from outside or from between each other. Sickness, drug abuse and mental problems are common. Every year there are more street children. This project was possible thanks to Doctors of the World Belgium and was published in the press.
