Renovation of Ranger Outposts in Bwindi

It has taken more than a year, but now the three ranger outposts Ndego, Ruhija and Kitahurira in the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park are in good shape again. Repairs had been needed urgently, the needs of the rangers being paramount.
The work was funded by Berggorilla & Regenwald Direkthilfe. Local labourers and contractors repaired and painted the roof sheets, fixed and painted windows and doors and performed all kinds of special work on the various buildings. Water supply being the most urgent problem in all of the outposts, new water tanks were installed.
