Madagascar's coup in 2009 has led to a lot of uncertainty and instability, and one of the consequences has been that funding for education has been woefully inadequate. As a result, untrained community teachers, who are either paid by parents or not at all, now make up two thirds of all teachers. Emilie Filou reports on how schools have been getting on.

Round limestone buildings with conical stone roofs are the trademark of the southern Italian region of Puglia, the heel of Italy. They're called trulli, and as Dany Mitzman has found, they've been having a revival. The former poor people's homes or food stores and sheds are now popular with tourists. This has also given a new lease of life to the trullari, the skilled tradesmen who restore and maintain the trulli.
