Niger
A dry country benefits from the sun
'Village Solaire' (village of sun) is Niger's motto for the Sahel countries' group presentation. A solar energy system with appliances demonstrates this inside the exhibition hall. The sun is useful here, it helps people but it is also a problem. The extent of this and what can be done about it is shown by the photos and explanations on the clay walls. The pictures are divided into the subjects of 'fields and solar energy', 'dangers for the fields', 'negative effects' and 'solutions and strategies'.

A lively insight into life in Niger is offered by music groups and fashion shows. The visitor can buy traditional clothes and art objects. A revolving column provides information about Niger and its geographic position in the Sahel zone.
