Dabnou is a small town in southern Niger, located in the Tillabéry region, near the Nigerian border, in the Sahelian belt. An important rural settlement in the region, Dabnou is economically based on agriculture and livestock, growing drought-tolerant crops such as peanuts and millet, and raising goats and cattle. Although small, the city is a center of trade for the surrounding villages, and is populated by Hausa and Fulani, with traditional handicrafts and bazaar trade active. Due to the climate of the southern edge of the Sahara Desert, the area is arid with little rainfall, and the population relies on traditional water systems for its livelihood. Despite its limited infrastructure, Dabnou retains a unique cultural identity in southern Niger, epitomizing the life of the local agro-pastoral society.
