Water Experience
I work with vulnerable communities in Eswatini to improve water access and gender equity through community water-harvesting projects, rainwater tanks, and household water‑saving training. I lead youth groups to build and maintain communal storage, teach mulching and soil‑moisture techniques for gardens, and prioritize women’s leadership in water committees. My initiatives reduce women’s collection burdens, increase food security, and create income from surplus produce. Drawing on lived experience, I advocate for gender‑responsive budgeting in local plans and mentor youth to use simple monitoring tools, ensuring community voices shape water management decisions.
