Catching Raindrops in Africa is a short film promoting farmers, who are the frontline water managers of Africa.

Currently, 95% of public investments are made towards irrigated agriculture, shutting out 95% of agriculture that relies on rainwater.

This film is for those working with food security, water and soil conservation in Africa. Particularly governments, development finance institutions and international development practitioners.
