More than 600 families across two wards in Gwanda District have gained access to improved water infrastructure through government collaboration with Welt Hunger Hilfe, which established piped schemes that eliminated the need for residents to walk up to five kilometers for water. Moscow Moyo, vice chairperson of the Nkalange project, said 10 taps are serving over 350 households, while communities contribute R15 per family to fund security protecting solar panels from vandalism.

The humanitarian initiative, funded by the German organization Bauer Foundation, also targets 1,100 additional households through two schemes under construction in separate wards. Vincent Chiunya, who heads the drought recovery effort for Welt Hunger Hilfe, said programming included climate-smart agriculture training, livestock vaccination campaigns, poultry restocking, and village business unit formation alongside the water infrastructure.

District Development Coordinator Nomathemba Ndlovu welcomed the partnership as critical support for communities recovering from El Nino drought impacts that created widespread food insecurity throughout Gwanda.
