Description

  To allevate the poverty in rural area of developing countries, maintenance of the small scale infrastructure is necessary. The communities are required to develop capacity for improving rural infrastructure on their own initiatives to mitigate the losses which are likely to occur in both production and transportation processes. To enable the people maintain the infrastructures by themselves, a simple maintenance method with Do-nou, which is a Japanese term for soilbag, was developed. The technical transfers of the developed method has been conducted in four contries in four different approaches. The objectives of the technical transfers are how to take the technology to the grass root and expand it in short period. Through the four approaches for the technical transfers some communities have started maintenance at their own initiatives. After the demonstration of the road maintenance, a community maintained a bridge by themselves using Do-nou. To maintain the rural infrastructures in developing countries leading to poverty alleviation, one approach from the department of civil engineering has been proposed.
