By Staff on Aug 12, 2004, 20:56


Participants of the Summer Work Program (SWP) deployed in the Southern region are actively engaged in development activities in a number of villages. Over the past 12 days, they built 5,500 cubic meters of embankment and dug more than half a million holes for planting over 130,000 types of tree seedlings in the administrative centers of Mai-Mne, Adi-Quala, Emni-Haili, Areza, Mendefera, Debarwa, Dekemhare, Segeneiti, Senafe, Adi-Keih and Tsorona. Moreover, the participants of the secondary school students built school compounds covering an area of 1300 square meters.

The Summer Work Program is a continuation of soil and water conservation schemes as well as forestation undertakings that got underway in 1994. It is also designed to enable the participants acquire valuable skills in addition to getting acquainted with the people and places where they are stationed. More than 7,000 students, 154 teachers and 141 agricultural experts and 27 barefoot doctors are taking part in the program under implementation in the region.
