Street Kids In Khartoum

Street Kids In Khartoum

25 September 1989

There are more than 20,000 vagrant children in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. They call themselves Tarazani or little Tarzans because they live wild in the big city. Their families are victims of drought, famine or civil war that has ravaged the country. UNICEF supports a courier service called SKI (Street Kids Incorporated), that employs the street kids and provides them with basic education. (.)
