  • Livestock traders take their animals to a local market May 12, 2006 in Wajir, Kenya. Most pastoralists lost nearly 90 percent of their animals in the ongoing drought and the animals that did survive are getting about half of the normal market rate. During the past decade, the frequency of drought has been increasing with shorter recovery periods, having an intense impact on the pastpralists who are among the regions most vulnerable population. Of the more than 8 million people in need of humanitarian assistance in the Horn of Africa, 1.6 million are children below the age of five years, threatened mainly by malnutrition. The loss of the animals, prime sources of meat and milk and the main financial assets of the pastoralists,  has created a spiralling cycle of poverty and insecurity. (Ami Vitale)

  • KASHMIR,INDIA: A Kashmiri vegetable seller holds a Kashmiri Lotus flower at the early morning market in Dal Lake in Srinagar.  There has been less violence in Srinagar since a recent thaw in relations between nuclear-rivals India and Pakistan.  More than 38,000 people have died in Indian Kashmir since the eruption of the anti-Indian rebellion in 1989. Human rights groups and separatists put the toll twice as high.

  • A baby sleeps inside the house of Mr. Amar Singh Verma, who is the "sanchuluk" or computer operator in the agricultural village of Siradi, about 65 kilometers from Bhopal, India March 1, 2005. The company ITC has installed solar power and computers in the villages so farmers can trade their crops online and shopping malls next to the agricultural markets where they bring their harvest. Already their lifestyles are improving as they are able to communicate with the outside world, have electricity and most importantly wait for good prices to sell their crops. Ami Vitale

  • A boy using a donkey to transport fish to the local markets is splashed by a motorbike on the coast of Mauritania where local fishermen struggle to compete with the huge tankers and trawlers used by the foreign fleets. West Africa has suffered massive overfishing by foreign fishing fleets, with local small fishing boats forced to fish further and further out to sea or to concentrate their activities in sensitive coastal areas.  In the last 45 years, foreign vessels,   caught an estimated 80 percent of the fish taken from West African waters. The coastal nations took home the remaining 20 percent. And their share may get smaller. (Photo by Ami Vitale)
