The target of 30,250 trees to be planted at the water source, could not be reached due to the fact That, JUHUDI NGO had run out of tree seedlings and thus could not access the seedlings due to the dry spell that was experienced in last Quarter of the year 2010.
The challenges in the construction of the Ventilated improved Pit (VIP) latrines lies with the technical and financial capabilities of the local community, there was no readily available expertise in the slabs construction, despite the local Government promising to provide its expertise in the constructions and instructional purposes

Lessons Learned

|---|
| The use of an improved firewood Cooking stove, to reduce the consumption of fire wood for energy purposes is ideal and very important in the conservation , management and protection of the Environment |
| The increased and Continued empowerment of community based Soils and Water resources’ management around the water Sources may bring an eventual change of behavior in the management of the natural resources |

Challenges
| Challenge | How it was overcome |
|---|---|
| The Muheza District forest department refusal to cooperate in the project implementation after a corrupt deal between the local Government and individual business men allowing for the cutting down of Mvule trees ( the preserved Hard trees species) around the water source which was aired by the ITV and the TBC and which soon immediately brought the Ministry Department to visit the was area and which over 12 forest department officials involved were forced out of their Jobs was really heart shaking | We tried to address the issue as a national Threat , that needs the cooperation of all the stakeholders and especially major Stakeholders like the Forest Department, and we will continue empowering them on the need for a role playing in the fight against the mismanagement of the water resources |
| The increasing mass use of Fire wood for energy purposes by the local Community hinders proper protection and management of the Water resources’ Management. | We introduced and will continue empowering the community on the use for locally made improved fire wood cooking stoves that reduces the mass cutting of trees For domestic energy |
| The Tree and Forest Burning is a common activity in these areas, and may be of a high magnitude and affect the general forest protection mechanisms, affects several water sources | The Organization empowered the local community and workshop participants on the need to have a more and enhanced community based efforts that take legal action on the unnecessary Burning Of Trees and forests |
