Protecting spring water through a reforestation program on riverbanks to fight against erosion and intoxication of Lake Tanganyika in Burundi.

Commitment: The ,Acting For Solidarity And Sustainable Development, ASDD, has already noticed enormous consequences linked to the destruction of trees especially on the littorals of rivers and streams that flow into Lake Tanganyika . This is especially true of the MUGERE River which separates the MUHA and KABEZI communes.

Mainstreaming Lakes and other lentic waters more prominently in the Global Water Agenda.

Even though lakes account for more than 90% of the freshwater resources (liquid) on the earth , their importance has not been reflected adequately in the " Global Water Agenda " and the " Sustainable Development Goals " (SDGS). Meanwhile, a resolution on "Sustainable Lake management " adopted by he 5th United Nations Environment Conference (UNEA5) in March 2022 is expected to be instrumental in mainstreaming lakes in those and other global commitments.
