THE
FIRST NOMADIC WORLD UNIVERSITY FOR SUSTAINABILITY
The
university does not deliver a diploma; it creates a mobile,
flexible chain of actors, places, disciplines, professions
and skills. Its resources, knowledge and expertise are
put into downstream to upstream synergy for a local sustainable
development project. It is defined and carried out within
a scientific and ethical framework of local actors while
using an intercultural, interdisciplinary, inter-sectoral
and intergenerational approach.
Given
that sustainable development will inevitably affect future
generations, it is only natural that young people participate
in this project. There are thus no “students”,
nor “teachers” only co-participants who train
and cooperate with each other via a mutual exchange of
information and experiences, within a research-action
framework, i.e. action from theoretical/ conceptual research.
A number of results are hoped for: concrete outcomes for
local development projects, thus improving a population’s
status in the long run; contributions to an intercultural
dialogue; and an increase in the world’s collective
capital of conceptual, technical and practical knowledge.
THE
NOMADIC WORLD FESTIVAL FOR YOUNG CREATION
The
sustainable development concern the future of young generations.
The Nomadic World Festival for Young Creation, artistic
twin of his scientific brother, the Nomadic World University,
does not give any reward. It is designated for the youth,
put together the arts and different worlds, connect, country
after country, the colours of the world for the local
imagination.
The biggest part of the South population is young and
the youth is the biggest part and the most innovative
one of the population in the North countries. Everywhere
the youth must be able to express, imply and make proper
to them the sustainability approaches : the link linking
linked
The artistic expression is the privileged way of the creativity,
communication, identification and affirmation of the youth.
This festival gives opportunities for the young talents
and for young creators known in the local environment,
but without abilities to become known in the whole country
or to act on globalisation, to meet each other, to discover
different worlds, to show their talents, to confront the
largest public, to exchange theirs experiences, to create
the links and to let them exchange their know-how, their
creations and their ways of being, speaking and doing.
It let them to find a way out of their isolation which
limits their blooming and their citizenship.
UNIVERSITY
AND FESTIVAL in
duet
Decline in duo the
festival and the University would express, trough theirs
modalities and theirs common practical aspects and with
their own fields, the needs of sustainability to connect
ethic and economy, fun and effort, creativity and daily
ways, seduction and destiny, science and art, local and
global, youth and more mature people, development and
culture. These two events could help to express and to
know the singularity of the world but as well the variety
and plurality of local cultures into the global dynamics
for integrating development.
To provide synergies and interactivities to proximities
opens up the ways of thinking and reacting, the generations
and places, to develop the local cultural creativity and
local expertises signed in the same shared targets into
the project area : the sustainable welfare of the local
populations, the appreciation of local resources and cultures
and the global sustainability.
These
two events, each one made in its own language and in its
purpose but in interaction, look for making desirable
the imperative of sustainability and for helping globalization
to become fruitfulness for all. And by their interactive
practices between ethics and economy, art and science,
global and local, they appreciate spirit and culture of
the deserts as part of the collective world capital of
knowledge. Nomadic peoples are the first global and local
minds in the world.

SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL IN NIGER
Niamey,
the capital of Niger, is a strong city by its ethnic
mixtures, its paradoxes which mix the life of the
box and the world of the city and by the manner in
which people cope with little in little and to remain
standing up with nothing.
Agadez,
formerly targuie capital, legendary city of North
for the travelers and the merchants since hundreds
of years, show in the mountains of Aïr and the
desert of Ténéré, where all seems
motionless but where colors, the lights, times and
the forms are repeated and changing. It is there where
the kingdom of the nomads is: infinite sand dunes,
mountainous citadels, magic sunrises and sunsets.
Where it is so difficult to survive that those which
resist humbly and collectively gain in nobility and
freedom. There still the daily tasks consisting in
making goat's milk cheese and walking all day long
to supply themselves out of water and to find grass
for the goats.
But there is also,
here and there, the hidden oasis which abound of fruits,
as in Timia where small rivers sprinkle the palm trees,
the orchards of orange trees, pomegranates, peach
trees and of date palms. There are the oasis of Ifeourane
and its Tuareg festivals. There is Sikerat where,
around wells and few means, secular stockbreeders
try to become gardeners. They seek to ensure the autonomy
of their subsistence and to offer a school to their
children to take up the challenge of the cultural
erosion which threatens them.

The sustainbility concept imposes limits on development,
those required by the link's continuation. But this
concept opens new trajectories where the creation
of the link explores and communicates a share of feeling:
the positive imaginary and the breath of life that
arise through conscience and the implementation.
Sustainability is represented in the feminine, it
adopts the face, the intuition and the history of
femininity .
