A Small Scale Irrigation Rehabilitation

A young boy herds goats in a dry riverbed in the Kebele of Bishan Behe in the Dira Dawa Administration of Ethiopia.

 

The Hararghe Catholic Secretariat (HCS) builds protection walls along this river bed to check the floods associated with rainy season downpours.

 

The Hararghe Catholic Secretariat (HCS) is the local diocesan Caritas in Eastern Ethiopia. HCS is part of the Ethiopian Catholic Sectrtariat (Caritas Ethiopia)

 

It is supported by a number of Caritas members.
