Video 3 - Hawa
Above is a video of Hawa: She goes every day to the market to collect left over seeds . This will be her only food. With her auntie she will then sort the seeds out from the dust, wash it and cook it in a sort of porridge. While they collect the seeds the girls are often insulted by the market traders who call them "market vultures".
This is really a shocking situation as no one, and least of all children, should have to live in those conditions, merely surviving.
