EL NIÑO
In 2016 some 40 million people in countries across southern and Eastern Africa were hit by an intense drought, induced by one of the strongest El Niño occurrences on record. This project was shot in Somalia and Mozambique where a lack of water has wiped out crops and killed livestock, with communities eating seeds and roots to survive. Children have dropped out of school to forage for food, and malnutrition is rife.
