http://www.lightstalkers.org/galleries/contact_sheet/26415 Sahara woman has always played a fundamental prominent in her own society that is infact a matriarchal one. During the war against Marocco(1975-1991) ,they were been compelled to run away in the most ostile part of Sahara desert: the Hammada. Without any kind of help from men, who were been engaged in the battles too many kilometers from there, Saharawi women were been able to grow up the refugees camps,where a part of the Saharawi population is still leaving( about 250.000 persons) to the logistic point of wiev, through the construction of tends, houses, schools, hospitals as well as political, social and cultural. Infact nowdays,most of them exercise important institutional assignments and everyone of them take part at the conventions between women who then are often determinants in many governative decisions. they wish their population could return in the territory from where they were forced to go away and where their relatives are still leaving under occupation; they are also divided from a 2400 km wall,full of mines, built by Morocco, just to deny the possibilty to the Saharawi people to return to their own country. http://www.lightstalkers.org en-us
