  • Starting up the rice mill just after dawn in Seduya. The rice mill was installed by World Renew partners Christian Extension Services. Until the arrival of the mill all rice had to be hulled by hand with large mortar and pestles. The mill has improved the quality of life for the women who had to mill rice by hand every day.<br />

  • Yohanna de Socorro Calderón Flores in Los Chilamates, Carazo, Nicaragua: “before this project, we used to only farm the traditional produce, wheat, rice, beans, that was it, nothing more. Not now though, we the new methodologies that we’ve learned, through the trainings and workshops. On my farm we have level curves, wind barriers, we are diversified. CIEETS has taught us all of that. We’ve set up a seed bank, because of the high risk of losing seed in drought or flooding. We’re planting yucca, bananas, plantains, fruit trees, citrus, pitahaya, lots of things. And now we have hygienic wells, covered up, nothing gets in them, with a pump. Before we had buckets and a rope, and stuff got into it. And, with the chickens, well, that is good for our own consumption, and to sell, we’ve made money from it”.

  • When it was opened in 1855, the Valo do Rocio canal - the Iguape shortcut - was only four meters wide and two meters deep. It was built as a shortcut for rice boats to get to ships on the coast, avoiding another 40km of waterways to get to the coast.<br />
<br />
But the flow of water fro the Ribeira de Iguape and the traffic of boats deepened the canal and eroded its banks. Now  the canal is seven metres deep and 300 meters wide at points. <br />
<br />
It feeds into the Mar Pequeno, the sea channel between Iguape and Ilha Comprida. Almost 70% of the water comes from the Ribeira de Iguape, which previously only reached the Atlantic some 40 kilometers further north. All this fresh water has changed the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of Mar Pequeno, and it is now one of the South Atlantic’s most important nurseries of fish and crustaceans. <br />
<br />
There is a plan to close the Iguape shortcut, but the impact this would have is unknown. Fishermen and others whose livelihoods depend on the fisheries in the area are concerned that there is insufficient concern about the impact of such changes.<br />
<br />
The Movement of People Affected by Dams are involved in consultations to protect the river and marine environment and prevent an ecological and social disaster here.<br />
<br />
Here a fisherman Miguel makes nets on the banks of the shortcut.

  • Griselda Ampáro Díaz, in her kitchen with her son in La Carbonera, Somoto. Griselda was helped with an improved stove in a project run by the Nicaraguan Lutheran church and supported by ELCA. "The stove uses much less firewood" she says "it's a big advantage for my health, I'm not swallowing smoke while I'm cooking, and I can cook things more quickly, because I can cook rice, beans and tortillas all at the same time. The stove uses less than half of what I used to use."

"the community was affected firstly by the flooding, most of it was under 1.5m of water, people lost everything, their kitchens, bedding, domestic animals like pigs and chickens. In agricultural prodution people lost rice, maize, bananas, the basic food for people. The flooding also affected the roads, it cut through 7m deep and 20m wide in one place. It will need a big investment to get us back to where we were. But because we can't get in to the fields because of the roads, we don't know how we'll replant"
