The Virunga Massif area is home to a unique ecosystem, providing a vital source of water for local communities, wildlife, and the surrounding area. However, the region is facing numerous challenges, including deforestation, soil erosion, and water pollution, which are affecting the quality and availability of water.

The goals of our community watershed project are as follows:

·         Protect and preserve the natural water resources in the Virunga Massif

·         Improve the quality of the water supply for local communities and wildlife

·         Increase awareness and education about the importance of water conservation and sustainable land use practices

·         Engage community members in the planning and implementation of the project

To achieve these goals, we will be working on several initiatives, including:

·         Conducting a comprehensive water quality assessment to identify areas that need improvement

·         Developing a water management plan that includes water conservation strategies, monitoring and assessment plans, and emergency response plans

·         Implementing sustainable land use practices, such as reforestation, erosion control, and agroforestry

·         Engaging with community members through educational campaigns, public meetings, and volunteer opportunities

We believe that our community watershed project is a vital initiative that will benefit our community and the environment for years to come. We welcome your participation and support, and we invite you to join us in this important effort.
