I need some help for a research project. What type of bean dishes do those from Niger eat?

Hello,

I'm doing a research project about Pulses (a category of food that includes lentils and beans) and I want to look up what people from Niger eat. But I can't seem to find it anywhere. I don't understand why. Does anyone have names of dishes I can please look up? It needs to have either lentils, chickpeas, or beans. I appreciate it so much! Thank you a ton!!!!!

Préfecture de Filingué, région de Tilabéri. Pendant la famine d’Ize-Neere, qui a duré de 1900 à 1903, le village fut déplacé totalement dans la vallée du Dallol Bosso. Pour se protéger des attaques de touaregs venus du Nord, l'ancien village était adossé à un relief.

Are non-muslims allowed to study in the Islamic University of Niger?

Hi there, I'm doing a small research on universities under OIC. Now, can you folks give me an idea about non-muslims in the Islamic University of Niger? It'd be important to know. And It'd be great if you could provide any verifiable source to prove your claim (those can also be in French). Have a nice day!

Can A Little White Girl Live in Niger Alone

Hey this is probably gonna sound crazy and stupid but I'm curious how you guys will respond: I am from the US, 20 years old, and I am decently well traveled. And honestly I am pretty smart; I study physics and linguistics as well as philosophy, Portuguese, and French.

This is completely hypothetical as I have to finish my college degree before I will likely move anywhere and I am just curious what it would be like if someone like myself were to live in Niger; bear with me.

In my world and to those I am surrounded by (the US, consumed by western drama), a place like Niger is not on everybody's radar, so consequently I am almost certainly extremely uneducated on the historic depth of Niger. From what little I know, Niger seems like an incredible place and I am determined to learn more!

Something about Niger specifically is intriguing. It just seems like a vital spot in Africa in the middle of one of the largest deserts on earth yet steeped in culture and surrounded by the spectacles of Northern, Western, Eastern, and Southern African- like truly in the heart of Africa.

I am kinda weird but also I just love people I think people are awesome. I sleep on the floor and can run fast. I'm really not picky, and if some food makes me throw up I'll usually just laugh. I consume very little, am not easily frustrated or bothered, and like to tell myself I've overcome a fear of death. Que sera, sera! I love to write and learn and am very helpful.

So, even if I did something like peacecorp there, what could I expect? (Also side note, have programs like the Peacecorp been at all helpful in Niger?)

Again, I could just be crazy and stoopid!!! But thanks for reading if u got this far xoxo.

Survey about your political worldview (18+; 15-30 mins to complete)

Hello, we are a group of psychology researchers from the University of Kent, UK. It would be a huge help if anyone from any background who is interested would fill out our quick survey (18+ years old only) about your views of politics, society, and more.

Fill out the survey here: https://universityofkent.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8ICkX7mBre5IGpM

We are posting here because we hope to collect responses from a wide range of political perspectives and backgrounds. Please let us know if you would like a summary of your responses in comparison to others once the data collection is complete.

The survey takes 15-30 minutes to complete, and we are happy to respond to any queries or questions. Please private message us to avoid giving away the point of the study to others.

Thanks for your time.

Edit: The survey is now closed! Thank you very much for your time, we will be sure to post the results up here when they're ready.
