about
A compilation in aid of the refugees from Northern Mali
Since 17th January 2012, a new Touareg rebellion has broken out in the north of Mali, provoking a dramatic humanitarian crisis: thousands of Touaregs have been forced to leave their towns and camps to escape the fighting. They have found refuge in the bush, or abroad, in Algeria, Mauritania, Niger and Burkina Faso.
The rural communities of Aguel’hoc and Tessalit were hard hit, their nomadic population are in severe distress and have lost everything.
Aguel’hoc is also the town of the group Tadalat, who, together with the french label Reaktion, are the originators of this initiative: we propose the sale of a downloadable compilation to aid the refugee populations from Northern Mali.
100% of the funds raised will be donated to two French associations: Etar (in Aguel’hoc) and Tamoudré (in Tessalit, Kidal and the Algerian frontier). The two associations are locally based with trustworthy personnel, and the money raised will be used for food, blankets and medicines for the refugees of that region.
Here are links to the two associations for more information:
Etar : www.associationetar.blogspot.com
Tamoudré : www.tamoudre.org
This compilation brings together the leading contemporary Touareg artists. The minimum price is €5, but the buyers are free to donate as much as they would like.

for bringing to the attention of the Western public information about the conditions of life of the Saharan people.
Our albums are always accompanied by booklets rich in detail. We have used the expert knowledge of anthropologists, ethnologists etc to provide the in depth knowledge that we wish to share.
