Description

Explore the historical impact of the 1968-1974 Sahel drought through this detailed study by Routledge. This work examines an unprecedented catastrophe that led to massive crop failures, the loss of human and animal life, and significant political instability across the region. It provides a deep look at how the destruction of social and cultural structures prompted a global response. Readers will learn about the evolution of international aid, starting from initial food donations by Western nations to the establishment of formal cooperative organizations. The text tracks the development of the Comite permanent Inter-etats de Lutte contre la Secheresse dans le Sahel (CILSS) and the Club du Sahel. This book is a valuable resource for those studying the history of development cooperation and the complex relationship between donor nations and Sahel countries during a period of extreme environmental crisis.
