This presentation discusses the impact of drought on the people of Senegal and Sudan. Drought is a weather-related natural disaster that affects large regions for months or years by reducing food production and water supplies. While drought harms many communities, some individuals can benefit economically, such as sellers who can charge higher prices for scarce goods. The presentation examines the specific challenges faced in Senegal and Sudan, including problems securing clean water, impacts on daily life and food security, and effects on the global economy. Solutions proposed to address drought include building water pipes, planting more trees, and constructing dams to store rainwater.

Drought is a weather-related natural disaster. It affects vast regions for
months or years. It has an impact on food production and it reduces life
expectancy and the economic performance of large regions or entire
countries. Its impact results from the relation between a natural event and
demands on the water supply. It occurs in virtually all-climatic zones, and its
characteristic varies significantly among regions. Drought differs from
aridity is a permanent characteristic of regions with low rainfall. Drought is
also related to the timing of precipitation. Other climatic factors such as
high temperature, high wind, and low relative humidity are often associated
with drought.

4. Who benefits?
- Economy & Sellers
The less quantity of the grown crops in Senegal the higher the prices will be. This means the
sellers will make more money but unfortunately the community cannot afford the item and so they
suffer from Malnutrition and hunger.
- Farmers on another country
Some of the main crops that also grow in another country could sell their Crops more expensive
than usual, and if the water supply runs out to grow the crops in Senegal, the crops in Senegal will
be extremely rare and it could also makes the item really valuable .
- The water suppliers
Rich peoples that have water in Senegal and sells it to the residence of Senegal, because the
drought is destroying the supplies in the lakes, the price that is given to the residence of the
Senegal is an extremely high price for a water supply, and so that the people that have no money
will be sick or die in lack of water and hygiene.
- Enemy Troops
If Senegal is stuck in a middle of a war and Senegal is running out of water, Senegal will lose the
war, Just like the “Horns of Hattin,” the Senegal’s troops will run out of water and will have no
energy and stamina to won the war, so conquering Senegal is easier than stealing a candy from a
baby.
