Dimi Mint Abba, the `Diva of the Desert', gave European audiences a first taste of music from the crossroads of African and Arabic culture with her 1990 album Moorish Music from Mauritania. A superstar in her native Mauritania, Dimi is widely regarded as its best-loved female griot ­ combined musical historian, biographer, social commentator, poet, soothsayer and storyteller. Powerful, haunting vocals have won her wide critical acclaim.

One Just World is a national series of forums focusing on global poverty and development topics of high public interest and relevance. Our aim is to help Australians become informed and involved in helping the 800 million people worldwide who are fighting to escape the poverty spiral.
