You are showing incredible support!
Today, while enjoying the sand dunes of Timimoun we were also saddened by the US election results. We know that the US has been an imperialist invader since long back, responsible for orchestrating many dictatorships, grnocides and wars across the world. #bike4westernsahara 🇪🇭

⛈️With films like Desert PhosFATE (Mohamed Sleiman), #FiSahara has long been raising awareness about the effects of #ClimateChange in Sahrawi refugee camps. The torrential rains of recent days now leave us with these images from the Smara camp. #ToResistIsToWin 🇪🇭
