| dc.description | Kirehe District has been severely impacted by a number of climate hazards, including a protracted drought and recent strong rainfall, which have increased the risk of unprecedented run offs that, in turn, could result in flooding and landslides The destruction of homes, top soil erosion and crop submergence are among the disastrous consequences in marshlands, where more than 50 ha of rice crops have already been destroyed Kigarama Kigina Nyamugari Mahama Nyarubuye and Mpanga were six of the 12 sectors in Kirehe that were particularly affected Between January and March 2019 17 people were killed, 1 613 houses razed and 1 381 kitchens and toilets destroyed At least 3 954 ha of crops were damaged, with 90 household animals decimated Livelihoods are becoming a challenge in such areas, particularly since the majority of the population relies on casual agricultural labour and subsistence farming. | |
