Things from everyday life on the other side of the world can look very different and seem to us wild.

Recently we talked about drinking water and that in fact over a billion people produces from its wells, marshes, puddles, the sky and walking a few kilometers to the column. Today we will talk about some schools in Senegal.

So, welcome to Senegal. But not in a simple school, a Muslim or Koranic. According to collected testimonies, in this country, with a population of about 15 million people at least 50 000 Senegalese children, called talibé, aged 4 to 12 years enrolled in Koranic schools.

Senegala tens of thousands of children sent to study in Koranic schools in cities, are exposed to abuse and humiliation by the religious teachers. In particular, teachers force their students to engage in begging on the streets. Teachers, who are called by maraboutage, often violently push the Taliban among his disciples for alms on the streets of Senegal, where they live in poverty for long hours seven days a week.
