Biba is a single mother of five children and lives in the Tillabery region in Niger. In the absence of jobs and with no possibility to go to school in Niger, she followed her husband to Libya in order to find work. Biba’s dream of a better life in Libya was overshadowed by experiences of racism in everyday life. After 9 years she was forced to return to Niger as the war broke out. Back in her home country, she wants to help build a better future for the next generation “All I am asking for is an equal and fair chance for everyone.”
