In Mali, West Africa, the villages of Djangoula Kita and Djangoula Foulala are presented with a significant opportunity through working with the non-profit organization, Mali Nyeta, to adapt their food and water management systems on their own
terms before the shifting environment, in the wake of climate change, necessitates it.
This document explores possible water management and agriculture strategies that are suitable for the existing site and regional conditions of Djangoula Kita and Djangoula Foulala and how these selected water management and agriculture strategies may be incorporated into a new four-hectare womenÕs garden shared by the villages.
The research compiled is meant to provide information about the existing conditions of the villages, reveal bits and pieces about the lives of village residents, and illustrate
a framework for finding strategies that could work for sustainably addressing the problems of villagers today in helping them prepare for tomorrow.
