Didi Hara Village, Ethiopia

Tuti Village, Ethiopia

The Awash River also runs through Tuti Village and the Agriculture Group uses it to water various vegetables. They are harvesting a wide range of produce. They want to grow their farm and are building a water canal to get more water.

“Sambil menyelam minum air” is a common Indonesian idiom roughly translated as “drinking water while diving in.” This phrase is meant to convey that it is possible to engage in one activity while doing a separate beneficial activity at the same time. This concept was displayed in practice by the GHNI Mawa Transformational Community Development (TCD) team this month.

The drought has had a significant negative impact on the community. Women and children are particularly vulnerable to drought. The men travel a long distance with their cattle to find grass and water for their animals.

Our village outreach programme is helping the community to raise the resources from their own villages. Until now we are reaching out to 21 different villages to uplift the community. Our recent programmes are making a difference. FAITH (Food Always In The Home) gardens are helping the community to deal with food needs. FAITH gardens and Self-Help Groups are providing more opportunities to share and make strong relations.

Harowayu, Ethiopia

Our activity in the Borena region has been excellent in all five Transformational Community Development (TCD) programme areas. All activities in Harowayu Village have been running smoothly. However, a recent drought occurred in the area, and several animals are dying as a result of a lack of water and animal feed. The rainy season is normally September to November, but there has been no rain during this timeframe.

The drought affected all the animals and human activities in Didi Hara Village, just as it did in Harowayu Village. Because the two Transformational Community Development (TCD) project areas are only about fifteen kilometres apart, the situation is the same. Previously, all activities were running smoothly, but now the remaining villagers are attempting to function normally.

This quarter the Transformational Community Development (TCD) team has continued ongoing initiatives with the community: water sources, latrines, and soap business. In addition, four TCD lessons were facilitated: Making Decisions/Solving Problems, TCD Concept review, Integrity, and Perseverance.
