Limitations
Cause and Effect Understanding. Stakeholders may
not understand the impact of check dams upstream as
a solution to problems downstream. In some regions
of Afghanistan, people believe that hillside erosion is a
good thing as it replenishes the farmland. However,
the damage caused by heavy erosion outweighs these
benefits. One must clearly explain the strategy of
managing water and soil upstream in order to improve
conditions downstream. Pictures and diagrams may be required to explain these concepts.
