Vait ovat luoteisessa Liberiassa, Sierra Leonen pohjoisosassa ja lähialueilla Guineassa asuva kansa. Vuonna 1980 heitä arvioitiin olevan 350 000 henkeä.

Vait puhuvat mandelaista kieltä. 1800-luvulla sen kirjoittamista varten laadittiin omaperäinen vai-kirjoitus. Kansan pääelinkeino on maanviljely.[1] Peruselintarvikkeena on riisi, ja sen lisäksi vait viljelevät muun muassa puuvillaa, maissia, kurpitsaa, inkivääriä, kahvia ja kaakaota. Palmupuukin on tärkeä hyödyke, josta vait saavat muun muassa pähkinöitä, voita, viiniä, polttoainetta, saippuaa ja koreja. Koulutus jakautuu kolmeen eri tyyppiin lapsien iästä riippuen: ”maaseutukoulu” (jossa lapset opettelevat vain kansan tapoja, sosiaalisia taitoja ynnä muuta), englanninkielinen koulu sekä arabiankielinen koraanikoulu.lähde? Käsityöammatit ovat kehittyneitä. Suurin osa vaista on sunnalaisia muslimeja.[1]
