We have dug 5,000 water bunds in Monduli, Arusha. These water bunds help to harvest rainwater which will allow pastoralists in monduli inhabiting the most degraded landscapes to restore their pastures lands and farm soils. This will have a positive effect on water availability, soil health, crop yields and most importantly grass and fodder for livestock.

A robust ‘Training of Trainers’ (ToT) program, has been conducted to capable candidates who were selected from each targeted village to become regreening champions and trainers in their respective villages. The Training of Trainers trainings has been conducted to 100 regreening champions, 50 from each village, who were selected amongst the villagers based on the project requirements and criteria. The participants have been trained on the regreening techniques and are required to train the techniques to their fellow farmers and pastoralists.

Our first advocacy meeting in Monduli district, Arusha to seek all-stakeholder support (government, religious, public, private), and introducing our Pastoralist Managed Natural Regeneration (PMNR) project with Justdiggit and Erbacher Foundation. Later these meetings will be conducted for the purpose of discussing the progress of the project, sharing grassroots experiences on achievements and challenges observed during the previous year, addressing challenges, setting the way forward and developing sustainability strategies of the project.

Together with Justdiggit and Erbacher Foundation we are happy to start a Pastoralist Managed Natural Regeneration (PMNR) project in Monduli, Arusha, Tanzania. The Pastoralist Managed Natural Regeneration (PMNR) project aims at improving peoples’ livelihoods and climate change resilience in Monduli district, Arusha, Tanzania. The project will use Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) and Pastoralist Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) methods to restore the degraded rangelands in the area. These methods are fast, low cost and sustainable and will allow pastoralists inhabiting the most degraded
