Ask a drought victim in Ethiopia
This is a rare chance to chat online with drought victims in Ethiopia. Here you can get the information on how to use your laptop/PC to get first-hand information from villagers affected by the current drought. They will be answering questions the whole day on April 6. So hook up with them, and learn what it is like to live in a drought stricken village in Ethiopia.
