In an already semi-arid landscape with limited access to clean and safe water, climate change is creating drastic changes to rainfall patterns in the region, resulting in widespread drought and water shortages. The seasonal precipitation patterns are highly unpredictable, challenging the efficient management of water resources in the project zone. This is leaving devastating impacts on the community, their livestock, and wildlife in the project area. The project has improved water access for >83,000 people by building new water tanks and pipeline extensions, improving water harvesting systems, digging new dams and establishing wildlife watering holes along migration pathways.
