	Nutrition country profiles: Niger summary (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		The south of Tahoua presents a different picture, and it is unfortunate that the EDS survey has coupled the two departments.
		The departments of Dosso, Tillabéri and the urban areas of Niamey are least affected (especially children), although the incidence of wasting observed in Tillabéri is relatively high, according to the EDS survey.
		Agadez and northern Tahoua are non-agricultural Saharian areas, basically inhabited by nomads, engaged in trade with neighbouring villages situated to the North.

		TAHOUA, 9 Jun 2005 (IRIN) - In these dusty scorching reaches of southern Niger, children are weak and underfed and risk dying in the next four months when malaria and diarrhoea reach their peak, Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), the international medical charity, warned on Thursday.

		According to an April survey, mortality rates in the north of the Maradi and Tahoua regions were already too high at the time - at 2.2 and 2.4 deaths per 10,000 people/day, whereas the emergency mortality threshold for children under five is 2/10000.

		TAHOUA, Niger (Reuters) - Malaria and diarrhoea pose a growing threat to Niger's starving children, aid workers said on Saturday, some infants looking desperately weak as they lay in an emergency feeding tent in the northern town of Tahoua.

		French Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy was due to visit Tahoua later on Saturday to deliver medical supplies to a clinic in the former French colony, where even in good years one in four children dies before reaching the age of five.

		The Tahoua Tuareg belong to a larger group of nomadic, Berber-speaking Tuareg who live in an area that stretches from the western Sahara to western Sudan.
		Although little is known about the Tahoua, it is thought that they are part of a Tuareg tribe that once lived in the town of Tahoua, southern Niger.
		Although the origin and early history of the Tuareg are cloudy, these tribal nomads appear to have traveled down from North Africa in a series of migrations as early as the seventh century.

	Niger. Detail of a village near Tahoua. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		With its cubic houses made out of banco (a mixture of earth and plant fiber) and its impressive ovoid granaries, this village near Tahoua in the southwest of Niger is typically Haoussa in its architecture.
		However, their reputation is primarily based on the quality of their craftsmanship and business sense; the Haoussan city-states in northern Nigeria commercially dominated numerous African countries for several centuries.
		Today the region of Tahoua is crossed by a north-south highway commonly known as the “uranium road;” the ore-rich substrate of the Aïr Massif supplies more than 2,500 tonnes (2,750 tons) of uranium per year, making Niger one of the world’s primary producers.
