North Africa does not carry quite the risk that subsaharan Africa does. Several vaccinations are recommended but she is too young (hepatitis A- 1 year minimum age, typhoid- 2 years). She should be up to date on her routine childhood immunizations. See link for more information.
However you may want to consider the immunziations for yourself.

Answer 3

I would recommend getting vaccinations. A lot of babies and young children die from disease and diarrhea in that country along with other african countries. I went to africa with my family about 4 years ago and we all got the vaccinations and came home healthy. I'd do it just to be safe.
