The farmers of the cooperative are distraught what looks like a lake is actually potato and corn fields everything is under water the harvest is lost. The only road through the valley is also flooded just. Everything that needs to be transported now has to be carried around the lake yet the valley is supposed to be protected against floods. Hi youre persian. First of all a project manager from the Adaptation Funds came to see us this and found that other people came to prepare the construction work and to get an idea of the terrain would be some. Once they were finished with their work we were finally able to plant up the whole of the valley with crops eating. In the they dug drainage ditches everywhere. Then the project was over. But not long after they left we realized the problem still wasnt solved the water just came back with. The Adaptation Fund is a United Nations initiative that aims to help developing countries cope with Climate Change rwanda has a High Percentage of fertile volcanic soil that means even the High Mountain slopes can be used to barrel farming the problem is heavy rain washes the soil down into the valley the solution is to build terraces into the slopes following the example of the incas in south america well known there will for we knew about building terraces on the soil on the slopes just used to get washed into the valley. There was no point in using the newer fertilizer. But now whatever we use stays where its meant to be so the crops on the terraces are growing faster and we have better harvest. Now all the mountain villages here have built terraces its a time consuming process the steps in the slope need to be at least 5 metres deep one is complete the ground then needs to rest for 3 months sometimes there are unexpected obstacles farmers have stumbled across on mt graves left from the genocide in 1904 which killed around a 1000000 people. And we found bodies under this field of People Killed during the genocide. So we didnt take any further there used to be a house here presumably there was a massacre and they just dumped all the bodies under there we dont take terrorists in an area like that you know. You had. A few valleys further own as. Greenville its its one of many socalled Green Villages in rwanda helping to promote sustainable development. Each village has its own school.

More than 200 flood victims from the region have found a new home and kept. Following us retire his he really is one of them. Ive planted potatoes beans and corn on my land. Nor do i have also specialized in leaf vegetables are there especially good for the children to ensure they get a balanced diet plus chard and spinach sell for a particularly good price and. The profits he makes on selling his fruit and vegetables are allowed him to build up a flock of sheep again. He now has a few chickens to. Just one year ago things were very different. With them along with a new order to get a house and car yasser you 1st had to prove that you were a victim of the floods. We lost everything in a single night. Before that i had been a very successful businessman. But in one fell swoop all of my 63 cars were gone everything i possessed was destroyed by the rain. I thought i would lose my mind. But his neighbors gathered signatures to ensure he got a house in the Green Village today the string that washed away his house looks quite harmless. And now the building has been put out why. His once stood with a new Family Living in it. He warned them about how dangerous it is here but in densely populated rwanda every piece of farmland is needed and jobs are in short supply. Work outside of the farming sector is especially hard to come by in rural areas but a center for regional handicrafts opened recently here a small group of women are running their own tailoring business. They make everything from festive gowns to more every day items with bags and other accessories to match. Its so much easier to make a living from sewing the work here is seasonal too but i earn well between 25 and 30000 rwandan francs a week. You can live while a lot. To. Me is. We make our way back to the farm is cooperative. Anyone capable of holding a shovel is out in the fields doing their bit everyone is hoping that if they can move enough mud out of the way the water will drain off. The women dig out the big stones. They then carry them to one of the many small water channels. But in this way theyre building dam most of them are designed to filter the water and prevent further mudslides and finally theres relief all round as the water starts to drain away. The movies a. Movie the sound of water flowing is really music to my ears on the it makes me happy where you. Someone wrote quote because it means weve got control of the floods for now at least. Who would know where you put the utility body to move we dont know how long it will last time use applied to get it out in the east.

The temperatures up here are close to freezing but that doesnt seem to bother the porters. Leandro from argentina is happy to have managed the 1st stage.
