Gravity-Fed Water System in Al-Hajar Village

completed

A gravity-fed water system was implemented in Al-Hajar village, Ibb governorate, Yemen, to capture and distribute spring and rainwater using the natural slope of the terrain. The system includes a reinforced concrete tank connected to a mountain spring and a distribution channel running through the village's farmland, providing sustainable irrigation without the need for pumps or diesel. The project was community-driven, involving local farmers in the mapping and construction process, and has transformed previously barren land into productive farmland supporting local livelihoods.
