Water, Land, and Life Transforming Communities with Sand Dams and Permaculture
Witnessing the power of nature and the transformative impact of sand dams has been a highlight of our year at the Laikipia Permaculture Centre Trust. These incredible structures are not only capturing precious rainwater, but also restoring degraded landscapes and supporting thriving communities.
Sand dams recharge groundwater, creating a sustainable water source for both people and wildlife. They also help to reduce soil erosion and improve soil fertility, leading to healthier ecosystems.

This are like limited access to w...
CLIMATE CHANGE CRISIS
มุมมอง 592 ปีที่แล้ว
Laikipia Permaculture Centre is doing a lot of projects in Laikipia North; like for example the sand dams which are concrete walls built across dry gulley's to slow, spread and sink the run off water into the landscapes. A mid climate change crisis these are technologies that we feel are doable and sustainable in the near future. This will help in restoring of ecosystems which are habitats for ...
DRYLANDS WATER HARVESTING TECHNIQUES- ILMOTIOK SAND DAM
มุมมอง 2012 ปีที่แล้ว
We believe that sand dams in their making do not deplete the aquivers but instead are able to tap the run off water which is able to sink and spread in the ecosystem. This works well especially in the drylands a technique that not so many know about. Together we can restore back our ecosystems and bring more water to the community.
LAIKIPIA REGENERATIVE AGROFORESTRY MODEL FARM
มุมมอง 3133 ปีที่แล้ว
Model farms are small plots with intertwined species focused on growing one or two main cash crops. The goal is to showcase the benefits of Regenerative Agriculture and inspire communities to join the transformation. And there is a good reason for developing regen Model Farms, because model farms serve two main goals: 1. Developing an example farm for specific crops 2. Supporting farmers with t...

Banana circle is a permaculture design that exemplifies the partnership between edible plants and waste. In a banana circle, different elements provide mutual benefits for each other. The design involves establishing a pit, fill it with organic waste and preferably link it with filtered grey water from bathrooms and/or kitchen. Then around the pit, plant different edible plants. Grey water from...

Climate Resilient Solutions for Smallholder farmers(CRESS) is a project supported by BMZ, implemented by Laikipia Permaculture Centre Trust and Arche Nova together with communities in Laikipia North through sand dams which are small dams built above ground and into the riverbed of a seasonal sand river. Sand accumulates upstream of the dam, resulting in additional groundwater storage capacity.

@manyisho production that clip was fire! You really nailed it-amazing work! Keep it up, you’re crushing it!
Amazing work! Incredibly inspiring, well done
Nice work people its a good lesson to the communities around
Very beautifully done💯
This is really nice, I live in Nanyuki (originally from US) and do agroecology. I've visited Laikipia Permaculture Research Center just past Jua Kali, but I didn't know there was another one. Very nice, I love watershed management. It's so fun to do these things and so important to restore the watershed and rainfall cycles.
We only have one centre in Jua Kali that promotes Permaculture and that is Laikipia Permaculture Centre (LPC) Check out our location: maps.app.goo.gl/kdbcxHRrpUJkH4YH8
Such beautiful and resilient people. We need to learn from their example and support their efforts to regrow and sustain their way of life. Be inspired.
Yes for sure. Thank you so much

“We need to keep the numbers of animals the land can hold”; that’s the key point that farmers need to understand in order to maintain the balance. Your impact is making a difference.
That's the message that our agropastoral farmers needs to understand. Thank you🙏 @mieessaayaachis2336
Good work / project! Water Wins, again. Thank you. Stay safe. There is much to do.
For sure there is a lot to do. Thank you 🙏 @johnberry1107

Amazing
Thank you🙏
Amazing work by LPC together with the communities. This is truly a revolution and great inspiration for other projects and communities in arid and semi arid kenya.keep it up. Permaculture/Agroecology is indeed a credible pathway.
Thank you @hoseakendagor5555 . For sure this is a revolution and we ain't stopping at that. There is more to come💚
We are about 2 years later now ... a follow up video would be lovely and an impression of the impact now on the communities would be great .

Feel so sad for them specially the women who go looking for water from afar .....then carry that heavy loads of water .
