Activists sit in a makeshift house at a hilltop above a silver mine, where they have been holding a permanent sit-in since 2011, near the town of Imider, southeastern Morocco, August 30, 2015. Three kilometers from Imider, dozens of poor and unemployed young villagers have been holding a permanent sit-in since 2011. They have cut off the flow of water from a well that supplies one of the biggest silver mines in Africa. Protesters want to make the company hire more locals and reconsider its water and environmental policies. (Photo by Youssef Boudlal/Reuters)
