THE TYRANNY OF WATER
GABRIEL KAHAMBWE
This pencil drawing captures the harsh reality of water scarcity in Camp and the wider desert region. In this
arid land, rain often fails, cattle perish, and clean water is increasingly hard to find. The human cost is
immense. In the drawing, a mother balances a water can on her head and her baby on her hip, while a young
child trails behind, carrying their own heavy load. Every day, families like hers must walk for miles under the
relentless desert sun – just to fetch the water they need to survive.
