Since 1975, after the war against morocco, 200 000 Saharawi people were forced to leave their own country(Western Sahara). Saharawi women organized 5 refugee camps in the most barren area of Sahara while the men were fighting. Women's work was basilar to develop social and political structure. However this was only for a previous solution and after 35 years in the Hammada, they have enough of wait and want to return in their own country as soon as possible.
