ラヴィロ・チャウルカさんは、小川の畔にある井戸から砂を掻き出していた。ジンバブエ・マスビンゴ州ムウェネジ地区にあるルテンガ村(ハラレから西に443キロ)の自宅に近い場所である。

72歳になるチャウルカさんだが、「水汲みの作業は片時も休めない。」という。自宅近くの井戸の水は砂の堆積層に埋もれており、水にありつくには必死で砂を掻き出さなければならないからだ。多くのアフリカ諸国が旧宗主国から独立して既に数十年が経過するが、チャウルカさんを含む数百万のアフリカ諸国の人々にとって、水道水は依然として贅沢品のままである。ちなみにチャウルカが暮らすジンバブエの場合、独立してから37年が経過した。

Interreligiöse Koalition zielt auf Frieden im Nahen Osten

Von Joan Erakit

NEW YORK (IDN) – Es gibt eine berühmte Bibel-Passage, welche auf die unglückselige Verwandtschaft von Geschwistern hinweist: ein Kind wird von Gott nach seinem Bruder gefragt, den es zu der Zeit schon getötet hat und es leugnet die Zugehörigkeit, indem es zurückfragt: „Bin ich meines Bruders Hüter?“ Einige mögen das Gleichnis von Kain und Abel so interpretieren: Als Menschen sind wir von Geburt an Brüder, die aufeinander achten sollten, es sind jedoch Umstände entstanden, die uns gegeneinander aufgebracht haben.
