Improving water security through Sustainable Land Management Story of change: Key findings & emerging impacts

Description:

• Sustainable Land Management techniques can improve water security and agricultural productivity in rural areas, with water availability and reliability appropriate measurable outcomes of SLM success
• Increased groundwater development without consideration of water quality can increase consumption of unsafe water
• Women face more barriers to uptake of SLM than men, including access to information, time and energy constraints.
• Consideration of gendered barriers to SLM and access to clean water and sanitation have been integrated into SLM in a new project which will benefit up to 65,000 people in the Kunzila region of Ethiopia
