Film Description

Simple, innovative structures in Koraro, Ethiopia, divert flood water that was previously devastating farmers. Now the flood water is channeled to irrigate farmland. These structures were built with support from the Ethiopian government's safety net program, which supplied villagers with grain in exchange for their labor.
