Guésséme is a small town in the Agadez region of northern Niger, situated on the southern edge of the Sahara Desert in a traditional trade corridor along Niger's borders with Algeria and Mali. As a typical oasis settlement, the climate here is arid and hot, with little precipitation, and it relies on groundwater and limited surface water to sustain agriculture and livelihoods, mainly planting drought-resistant crops such as dates and sorghum, and raising livestock such as camels and goats, which is characteristic of a nomadic culture. Although the town is small, it is an important material distribution center for the neighboring Tuareg and other nomadic tribes, with an active trade in traditional leather products and handicrafts, and at the same time retains a unique desert nomadic folklore and music culture, which is one of the windows for exploring the humanities and nature on the edge of the Sahara in the northern part of Niger.
