What We Do
Community Mapping for Flood Resilience and Development
Ramani Huria is a community-based mapping project that began in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, training university students and local community members to create highly accurate maps of the most flood-prone areas of the city. As the maps have taken shape – their benefits have multiplied and their potential magnified, now serving as foundational tools for development within all socio-economic spheres beyond flood resilience. The project is supported by funding from the UK Department for International Development through the Tanzania Urban Resilience Programme
Ramani Huria in Action
Ramani Huria trains university students and local community members to create highly accurate maps of their city using a wide variety of methods for data collection.
