1 October 2024. Water Harvesting in Africa. This session was moderated by Minni Jain of the Flow Partnership and Walter Mugove of ReSCOPE Zambia. A discussion was held around the practice of local, community based water holding.
- How do we make sure that our rain water harvesting structures can withstand heavy storms which are becoming more common and more intense due to climate change?
- How do we reduce seepage from ponds when we aim to store water in surface ponds and/or keep fish?
- What is the biggest barrier to doing water holding work in small local communities?
- How can we increase the local knowledge of, and spread of effective community based solutions for droughts or floods?
- What kind of livelihood opportunities arise when there is ample water? How can these be enhanced?
The recordings of past sessions are also available on the waterschools.org website.
