Subject: Rainwater Harvesting for Watershed Development
Duration: 2:18 mins

Sambhav an organization based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat India works on water harvesting and revival of traditional sources. Adopting a community based approach it empowers individuals and organisations to take charge of their water bodies. Here the river Nanduwali flowing south of Sariska has now been made perennial principally by ensuring base flow. This has been done by a series of storage and recharge structures. Open wells have sprung back to life and agriculture is now annual.

The process of how the community got engaged in the whole revival with the help of Sambhav is explained in this video.
