Description

Explore a detailed study of the Wadi Laba indigenous spate irrigation system in Eritrea. This research provides an in-depth assessment of how century-old water management practices have supported local communities for generations. By using earthen and brushwood structures alongside customary water rules, these traditional methods have sustained subsistence livelihoods for many years. This book examines the impact of modern interventions, including the introduction of contemporary water laws and new headwork designed to raise production levels and improve living standards. The text compares these new approaches with traditional methods, discussing why the modern changes have seen less success than the indigenous systems they aimed to improve. It is a valuable resource for those studying the effectiveness of water management reforms and the role of indigenous knowledge in changing environments.
