This guideline is based on the Swiss Re 2007 award winning pilot project “Water harvesting to improve livelihoods in southern Ethiopia: from pilots to mainstream” by RAIN's partners ERHA and AFD and on large-scale implementation of sand dams by SASOL in Kenya. This manual can be seen as a "growing document" which will be improved and updated with experiences in implementation of the upcoming years in Ethiopia and Burkina Faso.</description><author>RAIN - Rainwater Harvesting Implementation Network</author></item><item><guid>http://www.search4dev.nl/record/419440</guid><title>2010 Annual Report</title><link>http://www.search4dev.nl/record/419440</link><description>This is the annual report of The Rainwater Harvesting Implementation Network (RAIN) for the year 2010.
