Makuena Lesiea
A Master's student in Africa Studies (African Sustainable Communities) tells us about her research in Lesotho.
My thesis topic: Product Sustainability analysis of reed crafts in Maseru Lesotho.
“My name is Makuena and my research examines the social, environmental, and economic impacts of reed harvesting and craft making.
It looks at the economic viability of reed crafts, including reasonable wages for craftspeople.
More importantly, the study assesses the role of reed crafts in uplifting local communities, preserving cultural heritage, and providing livelihood opportunities for crafters".
Taremwa Fred
A master’s student in Africa Studies (African Sustainable Communities) from Rwanda tells us about his internship in Israel.
“My name is Fred, I am an intern at Arava Institute for Environmental Studies. I am working on a research project which focuses on assessing off-grid treated wastewater for irrigation using a case study of Al-Furaa School, located in an off-grid village in the Negev Desert, Israel.
The specific objectives of this study are to assess the impact of off-grid treated wastewater on crop growth and yield, evaluate the water quality and assess the level of bio-chemical contamination in crops irrigated with off-grid wastewater.
Therefore, this research seeks to improve sustainable agriculture through irrigation, prevent environmental pollution that comes with disposal of untreated wastewater in the environment and promote public health by preventing waterborne diseases that result from untreated sewage in water scarce and off-grid communities.
