Ethiopia

In 1984, Ethiopia experienced one of its recurrent droughts. This led to international support, including a programme called "air dropping", food delivery straight from the planes, as well as national policies aimed at resettling people from drought-affected areas to virgin forests. The pictures in this gallery are original slides back from mid-1980s, saved somehow and scanned.

I did work in Tana Beles Project i 1987 and 1988, and then again in 1990/91, until when the rebels came and "suggested" us to leave the country. Forse ci siamo anche incontrati da quelle parti. Sul mio sito web www.massimo-burioni.com ho messo anche io diverse foto del Tana Beles (non belle come le tue, ma si fa quel che si puó).
