I look forward to seeing more details as you build on your work. You may find some useful resources at the International Water Management Institute http://www.iwmi.cgiar.org/ Perhaps a researcher there may even be willing to collaborate or give you feedback, were you to reach out to them. Just an idea for you to consider. Best regards, Pete

Claudius Gabinete Jun 3, 2015 01:15 Catalyst 9 \| Share via:	This a very interesting and feasible proposal. All you need, as Monika earlier justed, is to define your estimated budget for building each of sand dam. The costs could also include costs for activities such as community consultation, dam siting and design, trainings and, of course, information, education and communication materials and activities for the beneficiary communities regarding the sand dams.
