The
watershed development project in Kanakanala started in
phase I in collaboration with Karnataka's State Government
(GoK). SAMUHA facilitates and supports the communities
and their institutions in capacity building and ensuring
people's cooperation. In the ongoing phase II (2000 -
2005) the GoK is not involved anymore. Focused livelihood
interventions were brought in, the watershed development
activities expanded into Micro Finances in an organised
way. MUNJAVU, which evolved in phase I now became responsible
to implement and oversee the livelihood interventions.
