Rehabilitation of Water Infrastructures in Mkomazi Ecosystems Related to Mwanga District
Introduction
Freshwater resources are among the most important resources for development. However, the unsustainable use of water resources and encroachment for settlement and agriculture is causing massive damage to the freshwater ecosystems, biodiversity and community livelihoods. The increased human-wildlife conflicts across the Unganisha landscape have been related to loss of water due to droughts but also the degradations of the water towers which for the long time has been discharging its water the low land area and thus benefiting the wildlife, people and livestock, an area with high ecological and economic importance, a hub for wildlife corridors and tourism development despite its rapidly growing human and wildlife populations, economy, and agriculture as well as livestock. WWF Tanzania is currently implementing a three years’ project aiming at developing masterplan and scalable model in Unganisha sub-landscapes specifically Mkomazi (2 districts of Same and Mwanga) and the West Kilimanjaro (Rombo and Longido District). Among others, one of the scalable models is the establishment of community led water management structures but water improvement in the drought affected villages. The Toloha villages in Mwanga district was highly affected by recent drought of 2021 particularly Simu-Kizungo and Gongoni villages. The villages currently share only one gravity water scheme to serves a population of about 1257 people, 2700 cows and 3759 goats and sheep which seems to be not sufficient. However, there is a huge water loss due to mismanagement and poor infrastructures.
