Introduction | Warka Tree
The name of the project ‘Warka’ comes from the Warka Tree, which is a giant wild fig tree native to Ethiopia.
The tree is a symbol for the local communities: a village without a Warka tree is not honorable. Hence, despite deforestation that has become a major problem in Ethiopia, the villagers protect and look after the Warka tree; and the tree in turn serves the community that takes care of it. Likewise, Warka Water wants to become an important cornerstone for the local community. It constitutes a very important part of the local culture and ecosystem by providing its fruit and a gathering place for the community.
