Canalisationproject over a length of 120m (60m x 2)

Since our buildings tend to collapse because of the erosion, and because of the depth of the creek becoming 3m at some spots which is dangerous to our kids, we opted to start a project with less costs than the original one.

We will use eucalyptus beams to support a plastic screen to in that way hinder the water to trickle in the soil (see pictures). This system would last for 5 to 6 years. Because of this, without too much damage, we can wait for a permanent solution.

Budget for the canalisation

It is three millions one hundred sixty-two thousand five hundred Rwandese francs, or four thousand two hundred and twenty euro (€ 4.220).
