Watershed Management

In this day of water scarcity, proper watershed management is of utmost importance. Using traditional simple eco-friendly and effective, methods we will charge the water table, conserve water and distribute it as per need in our area. Our volunteers have gone through training programmes and are equipped for this purpose. With experience and development of expertise, we will reach out into the neighbouring areas to train the people there in these simple techniques of watershed management.

Activities will include :
– Ensuring steady all-year-round availability of water by creating tanks, reservoirs, well, ‘nullahs’, small (micro) dams and so on

– Recharging of ground water by afforestation, contour ‘bunding’ and so on

– Traditional water – lifting & water- transporting technology (without use of motors & pumps)*Rain-water harvesting at the individual dwelling level
