12 November 2011, Burera District, Rwanda - Ambassador, UNEP Convention on Migratory Species and UNEP/UNESCO Great Ape Survival Partnership Ian Redmond visiting a local farmer in the Rugezi Marshlands. Recently the flow from Lake Burera has been restored and the power station is operating at full capacity. The restoration of the capacity of the power plant has restored biodiversity in the area and people have benefited in many ways, from improved fishing in the lake, a cleaner water supply, to increased tourism providing job opportunities and other livelihoods training.
