To enhance the food security, promotion of ecological agriculture is the key. Promotion of organic
farming implementing the measures of climate change adaptation in these villages are the
replicable practices.

Sustainable livelihood is ensured only when we promote environmental friendly development.
Effective participation of children, youth, women and farmer groups are the beauty of this project
which builds up ownership among the locals.

Marginalized community of both Morawang and Rukumkot villages were adopted the conventional
way of subsistence agriculture in the past. This project now really contributed them for positive
transformation of the society making them capable for organic and professional farming practices.

Rukum is one of the hilly Districts of
Nepal which is rich in biodiversity and
cultural values. Due to geographical
constraints and one decade long
Maoist insurgency, people from
Rukum districts are lag behind from
development. Even the District has
huge natural and cultural resources,
people are still living harsh living
conditions due to poverty, illiteracy
and subsistence agricultural
practices. Realizing this fact and
to improve the living conditions
of people through ecological and
sustainable agricultural practices,
BMZ and terre des hommes
Germany in cooperation with local
implementing partners Rukumely
Social Development Center (RSDC)
and Human Right, Environment
and Development Campaign
and Research Center (HuRED-
CARC) Rukum, "Food Security and
Environment Conservation" Project
has been implementing since
November 2015 for three years'
time period. This project aims to
establish organizational structure
of child, youth, women and
farmer and support in the sector
of ecological agriculture including
education, health and nutrition,
water supply and sanitation, forest
and environment conservation
with promoting ecological right of
children and youth. In the first year
of project period, 20 child clubs
(414 members), 20 youth clubs
(429 members), 22 women groups
(483 members), 21 farmer groups
(449 members) and 13 school
management committee (129
members) are directly involving in
different sectors of project.
This photo book is one effort to
collect case study and some good
practices of this project.

Tek Bahadur Pun, 65 is locals from
Morawang Village of Rukum.
He is one of the member of
Melmilap Farmer group and he is one
of the beneficiaries of getting support
of farming tunnel, seeds of tomato
and organic tomato farming training.
In the first lot of tomato farming, he
sold around 600 kg of tomato and
able to earn nearly NRP 35000. He
shared that "I did a lot of labor work
in minimum wages and also went gulf
country to feed my families, but now I
realized that income source is not far
from my own locality where tomato
and vegetable farming in my own
land is sufficient to feed family and
earn the money. I am also saving NPR
20/month in my farmer groups and
hope to increase saving amount by
extending my tomato and vegetable
farming through this gained skill and
knowledge.

Sima irrigation canal is one
of the irrigation canal of
Morawang village which is
75m long. This irrigation canal
is reducing the dependency of
people in sky rain. Local of this
area expressed that in the past the
conventional types of irrigation
canal which was almost degraded
state and frequent leakages was
making troublesome for us. Now
with this cemented irrigation
canal, we are happy to irrigate our
lands with increased production
without any fear of leakages.
Earlier it was also conflict among
the communities due to leackage
problem and its labour work, now
our huge time was also saved and
there was no conflict among locals.

In such hilly District like Rukum, people
always depends upon the forest for fodder
and fuelwood and tree species are often
used in furniture making. It takes several
years to regenerate any forest species. In
this regard, project has established two
forest nurseries one in each Morawang and
Rukumkot villages. These nurseries have
already produced 50000 plant species where
more than 10000 planted and maintained
to grow. The plantation is promoted both
in private and public land. People direct
involvement in plantation and mobilization
of all child, youth, women and farmer groups
are appreciative. This efforts highly significant
to restore the plant species and promote the
greenery.

Youth clubs are actively
involving in garbage
management, plantation
and water source protection.
Their role of promoting
garbage management in
household and community
level is highly remarkable.
Youth clubs regularly sit for
meeting in each month with
door to door campaign for
waste management. They
request community to manage
both biodegradable and
non-biodegradable waste in
proper way through making
garbage pit. The youth also
constructing garbage pit in
public places of natural and
cultural values. For example,
garbage pit construction in
Kamal lake is one of the good
example that how youths
are managing public waste.
People are now realizing
this important effort of
environmental sanitation and
contributing for making society
clean and green" said, one of
the member of Shuvapravat
youth club, Mr Ram Chandra
Dahal, Rukumkot.

Dry spell is the key challenges for
people of both project villages.
Most of the water sources are
depleting and there was no water tapping
or harvesting system for excess water.
To combat with this challenges, the
project is supporting for 18 water source
protection and 6 water source protection
has already been completed in first year.
A member from Sisne Pandhera Drinking
water schemes of Rukumkot said " It was
too difficult to fetch the water mostly
in winter season, but after protection
of water sources with proper storage
facilities, we have no worry and nearly
35 households are directly benefitted
by this schemes. She added that this
schemes are also beneficial for livestock
and personal sanitation through water.
This dry spell is the serious challenges in
this changing climate and protection of
such water sources in time is dire need.
