The effects of climate change and the increase in bush fires are jeopardising the sustainability of water resources. Water catchment flows are decreasing, threatening the supply to villages. In response to this situation, Inter Aide has developed a specific programme dedicated to the sustainable protection of water resources, based on the preservation of watersheds – sahan-driaka in Malagasy.

This film traces the main stages of this initiative, carried out in close collaboration with local communities: public meetings, formalisation of rules of use, delimitation of watersheds, installation of protective structures and supervised community reforestation.
