6:40 pm
which is home to some 100000 mullins. the start of the dry season is a good fire season here in the east of mauritania. bush fires like these can destroy a pastor crucial for livestock where just a few kilometers from the border with molly, where people have been fleeing violence for years. i was moved to miss owed arrived here in 2012. i won't, i won't. he volunteers with a fire brigade king to show us how they operate, the and so the, it hurts us when we see this burn land. it's like our hearts that were burning because it didn't get to see if our house had burned down. it's the economy and our lives that were burned down about the animals make up the economy in this region. the animals eat this grass a different burns, they have nothing to eat and they will die. for moody ducks they use these branches
6:41 pm
from the fire was a 100 trees to vash out the flames. the volunteer fire brigade was set up in the camp square masses and the other river cities, if you for call center and we have to help each other out in the economy which is shared between us and the locals. yeah, about a budget in federal we have to do something even if we have nothing. let me send a book of business. i don't, i normally give our sweat and this is money to in a way. that's why we created this organization. we have to do something for them to the fire brigade attracts many refugees looking for meaningful action and social connections. 500 volunteers have joined since they were getting his ation was recognized by the un reference agency in 2018. they've put out more than 135 fires on the, on the same, make friends here, get to know each other and the more attains and find an occupation even to help
6:42 pm
forget the many things they experienced at home. especially in this period when the new events in molly there's so many young people arriving at the camp day and night and on the, on the 100000 people living in them very. i can are continually joined by new refugees for money just this year. the you and hcr a registered 10000 new arrivals and more have found shelter in villages near the border. my food has been here for more than a decade, but the violent and molly's ever present. she says, whose nephew was killed there this year. i do miss icon on there are massacres, killings of anyone, anywhere or in any way possible. this year lives in the cities in the bush on the road, in the villages. very old people,
6:43 pm
women. this really makes us feel very uneasy. and that is, i need to have my foods still hopes that he'll be able to return tomorrow the one day. but until the violence there's thoughts, he'll stay here and fight fires with the other volunteers, rape and sexual abuse of man is often not reported. and that makes it difficult to get a true picture of how wide spread it is, but it is believed to be a major problem in nigeria when the organization working with men, say, statistics tend to reflect one side of the story. i'll be talking to an expert on that officer. this report from dw correspondent flash will buy new on the digital safe space. that's helping men in nigeria find healing from their childhood trauma of this 29 year old man. let's call him daniel. was sexually abused at the
6:44 pm
age of 6 by an older female. she was unable that experience. he says completely changed his life. he now struggles with pornography and must the patient addiction and sees no way out. i will also go further, so i'll still get that. that would be that i'm single thoughts out of my life. so now is getting married as a leader. that kinda gives me a little bit. yeah, the search as fast on it. so that kind of thing. every so it does, let's say the official subject was like, well we come up onto it, so keep up name. so we, we asked of the something he's doing what he can writing about he's experienced, i'm know, the most me hoping his story released by our parents to be more protective of the phones. and as a school teacher, he says he feels an even greater burden to prevent young ones from having a see me like spirit. it's hard to find any official fee because on the rates of
6:45 pm
sexual abuse among young boys in nigeria, one we sent reports put the number 3 inc. 10 boys, a high number. but that hardly gets any attention on looking for a student would be the main conversational ai you also the day. because when i was strong, i mean like 6, there's a lot of the stereotypes that we have. you society dots then to support those kind of neutrons. so much you do and she's friend started boys without borders to change such notions. it's a safe space online. we have men share the experiences since they started in 2020. they've heard from more than 14 men, many of the victims, one of the world to know that boys need attention to. what you do says it's only a 1st step to healing. and i think it majority 2 of our respondents would tell you didn't know it's one's been diagnosed with supports on i think there's also ties
6:46 pm
bought to dine, no, shown like why con 100. it's myself. i'm on even though like this. it didn't need to actually talk about seats to like or lose some of days to not understand the importance of booking through a professional outbox as john and you guys think that is also one of the things that we're trying to work on now do on his team of volunteers and now reaching out to young boys in secondary schools, teaching them that it's ok to ask for help. monthly's reading function. i mean, us printing what you've received, received by the cycle. boys be called mean a message boys to be called me. so what we're trying to do is to reach out to the boys and these pages give them the right information. meanwhile, survival is like daniel who's saying that story. so you do just want people to pay more attention to the issue so that it doesn't happen in the 1st place. yeah,
6:47 pm
so keep, okay, i'm gonna do you want to have to kind of just kind of experience and visual guys who wants to talk about still. sadly, when you're moving noise, you might ask sexual assault. engaged children happens globally much as they show the speed to women and goes, daniel, i do hope these kind of stories foster was not to forget about the police to. i'd like to welcome ducks have princess all the same, the coyote, she's an expert and responding to sexual and gender based violence as well as at 6 . you, as he thought, said, that's the only say because you would be welcome to data being use africa. you founded media concert, an initiative for women and children more than 20 years ago. do we know how wide spread to sexual violence against men and boys is? yes, from about 20 years ago. let me just state of about 2005 when we began to respond to the issue in the country in terms of child sexual abuse on 3 teams as
6:48 pm
a witness that we have a problem. and when are we looking to reach? so we have children coming generally intervene center and calls coming in from parents. and what are these, what children? i'm just kind of both male and female. so we have boyfriend, you have kids. so we've got to have boys mean these poor pen fees for 20 minutes. since that is just like to hold 0 in terms of the reports and if you want to look into percentage on so competitive numbers are reports that came generally children corvette about 85 percent for the spectrum. less of cases we have from 2005 down to about $2015.00. boys. if you don't want to look at between male and female, you want to say about 25 percent of the boys. but interestingly enough, now in the country as a whole, you have a lot of more reports coming out of the, in the notes that have to do with sort of strongly, official voice really, really,
6:49 pm
really been coming in, you know, in a electricals anymore. it's coming in a higher dimension here and that's a nigeria introduced a trail, plays a blazing law in 2015. this is the, the violence against persons prohibits. in fact, that change the law essentially to include rape of men as a crime. has that little been a game changer and jeff for survivors of sexual violence, guessing justice. indeed it has. it has really, really helped the risk cause, you know, to social identity as long as booked on mainland for women. because now if you do this for women is no longer just pay. now, you know um some penetration for the move, nbc and that is used cars also read. so for them, having more reports coming out and then barely, i think close to the the false pizza. i am not 50. i was involved in those because
6:50 pm
as an ad from the federal level states also often feel free. the next. yes. yes. close to pay for have already and after that. and then of course we've, that's, came some very wonderful interventions. now you have a states move us to phones and fish on before the law according to that is responsible for the addition of the lawful everything that needs to be placed for people to access health, the official policy having fish on health, then they're also such. i refer it also filters and requests into the country. now we have to goes to the about the 28th. if baltimore now sucks across the country. some in some states, some more than one in some states, just to one. i've been training of somebody healthcare. all of this is call me on that. in fact the media can be voc was the actual was and inactive. the 5th also becomes a mux. the old deal with that with f. c. that's our resources for bunch, and he's an editor to office, particularly for maine with the ones that we don't use that pronouncement for.
6:51 pm
right. that's the only thing to be k o d. i know that you are a survivor of sexual violence. what would your message be? to someone who has experienced all is still experiencing abuse and still suffering may be alone. what can they do? i guess your health is available, get stuck in the days when it happened to me. that was really annoying, but i sought health for myself because i knew that was much, much less than i was going to. um, that's just a self determination for me. i'm not everybody also has that's the nice on the world i do with, if in fact, every, every individual is different from the older person but gets helped very helpful. now people need to reach out a way i can get help. you may not even know with a different what do you think speaking out about things, and you specifically go to google, even google. so just google, what are risk fall sense of where can i go? and that also can go, i'd have to back. it also means that everybody wants to go to the criminal justice system, particularly for adults,
6:52 pm
but you can get the help if you need you to get the helpful. you don't come on to my, somebody's from cost me. you think you can gets medical assistance, look up if you read and we'd be done, i'm 72. i was here to assess what was called post a special for life is if you don't, it will no longer happening to you. the little screen they'll be don't for you maybe come and maybe show it still have this life event is free. so we need to know that there was help. i'll definitely you issue report or you don't really want to post a cause any, but you don't want to go. so we're going to, it's as you'll start from one of them, i don't see a personal decision on which would be respected just fine. what i need is the main system. i'm a also customer, maybe therapy, i can get to be better so that i can let this weight lifted off this whole team and be no less pain. goes to thoughtful for you. so a viable and there is help me very soon. thank you very much for that stuff, the princess or the family coyote. we appreciate that. thank you.
