Food in the desert

Follow Abeer down the Nile and then into the desert, where the idea of building a village was once out of the question. But, as Abeer sees, this is no longer the case. She takes us around one of these new villages and into a local woman's home. With the help of WFP food assistance and better irrigation, poor farmers can now grow the food they need to be self sufficient.
