listening to place of a mediterranean, ah, it's waters connect people of many cultures. siena almost rock enter far. do korean drift along with born modern, more styles. mediterranean youth, where has history left its traces, reading regal, healing their dreams. and the tune. this week, do you w with mrs. cedar vineyards, africa coming up on the program. the snow burn of climate change is forcing millions from their homes across the continent. in madagascar, the worst drought in decades is driving farmers from their barren fields. massey is one of them, or she has left us cactus to feed the cattle and her children. but those forced to

flee can return and rebuild. we have a report from born or state in northern nigeria where people are now be given new homes to replace their old village destroyed by vocal her up. and the princess awaits off to centuries of slumber. we have the tail of the bettina fossil legendary and then got trapped in a munich museum, determined to return to her ancestors homeland. ah, ah, hello, i'm christine manuel. it is good to have your company across the continent extreme whether caused by climate changes up in people's lives, forcing them to flee their homes and pushing millions into hunger and starvation. there are grim new figures from the world material lodge organization. they say

africa is warming faster than any other place in the world and with that, agricultural productivity is declining. the rise and sea levels is increasing along the african coastline at a higher rate than the global average threatening low lying coastal cities and extreme weather. events like floods and droughts are increasing in frequency and intensity, killing thousands of people. large slaves of africa are already experiencing acute drought and one of the worst effects of countries right now is madagascar where the rains have failed for years. are corresponding adrian creek visited the above. hornby region massey. what? sorry, i used to be a farmer. now all she is able to harvest are cactus leaves are endless. drought has left large parts of southern madagascar dry and unproductive, and it has left people like mercy in the precarious situation. she now relies on turning cactus leaves into capital feats to survive. since the rain stopped alive

has been turned on its head. he handled toys and we left the village because of the drought. it's very difficult to find water there. there was no harvest. so we had to sell all our belongings. la nab is in from idaho. many others are suffering the same fate as massey. she lives alongside them in this informal camp and the town of amboy vomiting trade. odami had his allotted, open the camp. when he saw how many people had nowhere to go to being forced to leave their villages. you'll let them alone, a guardian of this old man lying here. you stop a 120 head of cattle. yeah, i know he was a rich man. these really big issue that over the years he had to sell everything he owned. if it's his ometer and when the people have nothing to eat with, they end up just lying here like this. i he, in the region, they call it carry the hangup people got used to not having enough foods,

going to bed hungry. it is incredible how they manage to adapt to this hostile environments, but of course it comes at a price. i magneer sewer village in charge of the mon attrition unit for children at the hospital and above one bit. she says many children here are chronically ill . last month, 2 children came to late and died in this little girl is one of the 5 she is currently treating her. she thought this baby is 17 months old. and her arms circumference is very low as little van. it's in the red part. net. $98.00 millimeters, but normally it should be $130.00 for her age. she thought the flu. lemme and she still can't stand is another ari normally at this age. children already run and she can't even stand out a cosmic assemblies. oh,

we don't have good food at home. sometimes we mix the nutrition aid that n g o is give us with cassava. and we cook the cassava with a lot of water. if i have some money again, i buy sweet potatoes. beg at the camp, dami harris. alice says he tries to help here and there by buying medicine and collecting donations. he believes mainly climate change is to blame for the situation. but he also says corruption by n g o staff and government incompetence, i'm making matters worse. for decades, the government fails to invest in the region. the cycle of poverty gets worse, as rainfall gets less. so top is unknown, it is definitely going to be very difficult to stop this crisis unless the aid organization is clean up there actually banassi blessedly and it will also be difficult if the government doesn't see what's really happening on the ground on my

to take the right measures frontman results over to us. but on monday we need a hands on approach to bring this situation to an end answer. so from some lazar graham, those of us as she prepares, the 1st and only mule of the day for her family must be bored, saga asks herself why this is hector. i did not bother you. i don't know why the rain doesn't fall. it may be because of us humans. we don't love each other than that. maybe that's why the rain has stopped falling. or because strangers did something to prevent the rain, i don't know. i thought i had something set up on some greens and 2 cups of rice. that's all the family of 14 can afford for to day. yet they still offer their neighbors to join, trying to help so we've heard from some people in madagascar forced from their villages by the drought, but it's not chest madagascar. and to talk more about this,

i am joined by mohammed up because he is director for east africa and the horn of africa at the u. n's international organization for migration. it's good to have you on the program. thank you so much for being here. mr. optic and let's begin by talking about the migration in africa that is being caused by climate change. just what is the scale of this challenge. thank you for having be here today. first, we need to talk about climate change. we can no longer ignore the issue of displacement, mobility, and migration, and we never used to talk about that. and right now we're bringing issue fall mobility in migration that is becoming key for us. a good example is in somalia, where today we have over 1300000 people displaced because of flaw induced climate migration. 1.3000000 people. at the same time, you have close to 7800000 people in need of food assistance. and if we don't act very quickly, we have over 280000 people who are an acute food insecurity who might die because

of lack of food. that just gives you an example of this, kill somalia. but if you look at the region itself over 36 point to 1000000 people in need of assistance because of slow onset climate to my does that we're dealing with today? well, i mean these, these numbers, i say she and you talked about action. and now i'm going to get to that point in a short man, but let's talk about the patterns. if we can, when people do move, how do they move it? and where are they likely to go a bit right now. what's happened is the a lot of the rural about migration i can use so might as a case study, where we're seeing a large number of somal is moving away from the rural areas to the capital city or to the cities with the kind of country itself we've had a lot by door decides with state you have hundreds of thousands of somalis who also ran away from al bob held areas is an extremist group to run from there. now they're going to buy though and looking for assistance and we have to over 10000 for example, i have last week alone, 10000 people asking for assistance where the un and humans and buttons are

providing food, shelter, shelter, non food items for the ability to deal with this, but that is just in somalia, you have some of them in burundi. you have the rising waters afflicting a new gun which is displacing hundreds of bonds themselves. you've got to south to don is a whole city called been too under water. the last 7 months because of climate change. mr. ab digger and here in europe at the focus is on the migrants who take the roots, are off crossing the mediterranean. many have died doing so, but in east and africa we do work. and there are also dangerous routes that people are taking. he is tennis, mom, and the biggest wrote the biggest maritime wrote in the world, is called ist and wrote the biggest maritime wrote in the world. everybody talks about libya made it her and, and to europe. there were talked about mexico u. s. border, but when you talk about the eastern drug to talk about the largest maritime migration world in the world, from the horn of africa through somalia,

djibouti the red sea to yemen, which is a country and conflict to saudi arabia every year we have a close 250000 people, 150000 people who cross through these countries in deserts in smuggled and prospect going into i'm in a conflict, so i'm going into saudi arabia. at the same time, we have saudi arabia deporting a large number of this migrants back their home countries. a good example is in ethiopia. they've deported the last 7 months, a 103000. it's your bills back to if you're bits of an, a lot of those people on the move would classify as being climate change, refugees, people who've been displaced because of climate change. and generally is this is you've been given enough attention. that is, is the international community committing enough money to helping people in this case, preposition, you've told us some really astonishing numbers the, we ought to have come up with what we call the migrant response plan for one of africa and yemen. it's appealing for about close to

a $100000000.00 to support this migrants in djibouti, in yemen, in somalia and any of your good self. we're getting some support, not as much as we wanted to get, but it's not as much support as we would like to see. and we always appealed to our development part. doesn't dawn us to increase that support. we've seen the smuggling the trafficking. we've seen that economic impact this house on this migrants and we're seeing a very different trend, which is the feminization of migration before it used to be men on the move trying to fit their families. but noticing more and more women and girls on the move as well. and that is what is worrying us more because of the traffic in the abused agenda. business violence, they've gone through on the en route to their migration was tried to reach mostly saudi arabia. that's where they want to go. that's where the domestic walker's is. the irregular migrants themselves and that it has an impact, but also it's not just climate induced migration. what we have is very much an economic reason. we asked them all the time. why are you on the move and all of

them tell us i have no job. is poverty, lack of economic opportunities in the region and people on the move. oh, miss applica, we could really go on for a lot longer. but i think we, we can leave a chair right now that is mohammed optical from the international organization, off migration. thank you sir, but to pardon me? ah. your watching deed, every news africa still to come. an ancient african princess awaits in the cellar of a munich museum and begins to dream of her ancestral homeland in africa. but 1st, for those who are forced to flee, there is often an eternal longing to return home. climate change is also a driver of conflict. in northern nigeria where broke her arm rebels destroyed houses and drove thousands into camps in born state. but now some of them are going home as dw news,

african america acoya reports from the beach. hundreds of new homes, a new beginning for old inhabitants in 2015 book her amen surgeons drove the people of and got them from their old village, leaving them to find refuge in camps. now he is liter. they are going home. don't leave behind the 10th, the sheltered in 4 years and after the pain they have endured. finally, the res, relief well, come along. we're going back to and guarantee them, you know, we'll be able to grow food for ourselves and our children. i mean that we're tired of living away from home as long as you know the unhappy that i'm returning home and getting in house. i never, ever thought i could find someone i could build a house for me and i can return home. i got an alarm in as on call,

i'm gonna then i'm returning to got an am so i can live peacefully, no fears, no trouble any more. that's why i'm excited to be going back to garden. um. some years ago those community got an um, was completely flattened out, destroyed. people were displeased and livelihoods destroyed. but now the story has changed as they, uh, back into the community, been re settled and stocks in del lives afresh. again. bab im god off when i sally lost every scene on the mind of the attack since then his lived in 3 different comes is new house is bigger and house, more rooms than his old on his looking forward to moving in and enjoying the freedom that comes with leaving here in the co op by she did, i don't think our lives have returned to normal like before would in was look at

our room. oh wow. gosh, you can get up at 10 in the morning and leave the house, and no one will bother you at all that are going on. no one will wake you up from sleep and ask you to go to another place at dusk. dark as of no one i will give you any restrictions like in the camp is where you go. jo renewed it bow and now it is my house and i am in charge. i had the damage of the mark i'm. i'm the you don't. okay. did. did you that don't go bound it age you the good one of niger is foremost architects, towson ocean, our craft touched the buildings known for her creative solutions. just as consultation with the people was kids were coming up with designs that resonated with them. you know, it's very important to me that people should be proud of their home. i think if people have them pride in where they live, that peace of mind anything can be achieved, it means so much to be able to sleep some way in safety and comfort and be able to get up in the morning and go to work and be able to raise your children to be able

to, to, to walk around to meet your friends, to speak with family at peace grandma's. 6 on the project is a joint i thought of the barn state government and the united nations development program. and it still has the aim is to replicate this model elsewhere because people have been denied for more than a decade. ability to come back home. not only to come home for decade, they have been in comes and you know, come so important in terms of saving lives and broke for the security, but also takes away duty for many people. so he is also coming back to dignity. but the insurgency and violent extreme is him, are not banished from bonus, didn't completely. there remains concerns about security in many areas. but for the people of an gannon, the rece at least returned to dignity. as did we discover normal life. again.

my next guest is the architect who designed the homes you just saw in that report to see an ocean or she joins as from lagos. welcome to the revenues, africa tell seen, it's good to see you. so you're an architect by trade. how was this project different to the homes that you've designed before? i thank you for having me. this is the last person that i've done within the humanitarian. i do tend to work in the private sector dealing with individual clients. so companies, corporations, and this project specifically was different because it's humanitarian and there were a lot of stakeholders. but ultimately what was really important to me was ensuring that i was still treating the community as, as a private clients. right. so it was important to me to ensure that i was able to speak them about their requirements, what exactly they needed in their homes. and one of the questions i asked them in one of the consultation, what color they would like the building to be. and i had already seen some

traditional buildings in the area and the location way we have this meeting was in a school and there was a color that's very close. what's called the end up with jeff brown. and that's actually very similar to the color of a building goals. and i realize that this was really a call of nostalgia, which they didn't realize. and it was because of that i was very specific that we would have to ensure that we use the ground condition to create the finish the was of the building. so obviously trying as much as possible, take them back to what they would have had before the inside and, and it really look stunning, those, those, those colors or any compelling. but we heard from some of the beneficiaries in the report and they expressed how much it means to them to finally have decent housing . what has this meant for you to be able to be involved in a project that's about restoring the dignity of your fellow countrymen and women who have been the victims of vocal harm? i think it, it means so much it's, it's the most impactful what i've done today to be able to contribute towards that

i'm, it's little things you know, it's making sure that you're providing housing that's comfortable for the end user cross ventilation. making sure that the homes are appropriate, that they're not, that there's no build up of having around the areas for them to sit outside because there isn't much kind of become because of the region. and also because a lot of the base station had been taken down to reduce lines of sight to reduce that conflicts of lines of sites. so, you know, it, it mean so much and, and to know that one is really adding value to people's lives and hopefully providing them infrastructure that will give them the opportunity to really get back to what they need to do to have a nice progressive economic development yes, well, it means a lot incredible stuff and, and thank you for the time you've taken to to be on the program. great work to same ocean or talking to us from lake or stay. thank you. thank you very much, lou. now from people returning to rebuild their lives,

to the return of looted african artifacts. currently in museums in the west, it has been the subject of much debate in recent years now was even inspired as story scripted for stage and screen actually 2 stages, 2 audiences. but one show which brings a 12 century west african sculpture to life, go measure it wasn't really good movie, common in her 2 venues, nearly 5000 kilometers apart with the live video link being the bridge connecting them. it's a complex attempt at shining the spotlight on an even more complex topic about looted african cultural treasures in european museums, many slumbering in the vaults. one of them, a statue of yet anger, a warrior princess of the medieval de, gone by kingdom. now in modern day, burkina faso awakes to life in a munich museum. the play shows what could

a stature have seen all over these years? what could have february read off, and this that your dreams of returning to west africa. if the actors of the ensemble developed this vision of a return simultaneously a both venues in munich and in law, man, the theatre as a means of connecting people on 2 continents, the colonizing country, and the descendants of the rod for thinking about how, whether it is to be together in their mental way, because you're seeing the same thing, but you're not physically together. this is for me, bizarre and beautiful at the same time a poetic play about the search for justice in dealing with looted artifacts, which has deep significance for the actors and the audience. in ohio. they tell us our history, the history that we sometimes seem to have forgotten. i'm really excited about the conversations this is evoking and like these coming out of the african communities

that like are the most important voices that they sent it in. this conversation. toggle was a german colony from 1884 to 1916, and many cultural treasures were taken to germany during this time, the debate over their return like princess. yet anger is now alive, and for more on this theatre piece, i am on it to speak to search on may coolly bally he is the choreographer who worked on the project and he joins us now from what i do go in brooklyn, a fossil welcome to deed avenues, africa search am central to this piece is in anger. that's a legendary berkener, the princess from the 12th century. tell us a little bit more about why you chose her. yes, so i want to get a mission because

a lot. and then if you think you need, for example, you can see like i said, she wanted to let her know that she was, she wanted to be funny. she does a she, she just can go off and then i'm a lawyer and file a she can go and one, i'm actually one of the key on here. so i wanted to open up just to read off like a b a,

because i know you are usually on stage as a choreographer. why did you go behind the scenes for this production? actually a lot to be behind because i'm getting a a becoming difficult to pick out my own body. i, while you look, you still look very and if that's any consolation, but i do want to end of here search and the piece is called statues. dream 2 visions of return and so without giving too much away here does pin it princess

yank as dream come true in the end. yeah, this is a piece so, but i think next year he's a a, a, a, a, a, a also the songs center because it is so easy, so easy. a 95 percent of the of the

day. so they can do like a and then a black. why? well, thank you. say add good talking to you or the best out with the shows that was say i made it by talking to say from what i do. good. thank you. and that's it for now, be sure to check out our other stories on d. w dot com, forward slash africa. we're also on facebook. and on to that, i'll see you next time with
