Community development.
Sanzawa is one of thirteen parishes taking part in the Church and Community Mobilization Programme. The CCMP is a Bible-based, guided training approach that a local church can use with its community to identify the resources they have, then, working together, bring about long-lasting, whole-life change. As local communities work through the process, they decide which activities will bring about the most effective and positive outcomes for them given their current situations. The training has included bible-study, climate-smart agricultural techniques, and the formation and mobilization of self-help groups.
Before the training, women were walking a long way to the nearest water source to collect water. After the training, people became motivated to dig deep enough to find water, and there is now a well in Sanzawa. The community can grow a wider variety of vegetables, irrigate their crops and implement the new agricultural methods they have learned about. They are also building a new church. You can read more about the CCMP at: Articles/514936/Community_Development.aspx

There is also a beekeeping project managed in Sanzawa for the Diocese - see picture below.
