Water & Soil Conservation
Before REMEI came, our stream dried up every April. Now it flows through July. My children no longer carry water for two hours every morning.

The agroforestry training changed everything. My farm now produces food even in the dry season, and I sell fruit to the market. I'm not just surviving — I'm building something.

As a woman, I was never part of decisions about our land. REMEI gave me skills, a voice, and a group of women who stand together. We are the stewards of this escarpment now.
