Motion text

That this House notes the horrendous ongoing problems in much of Africa in the battle against drought, famine and corruption that has been fought for generations; commends the many volunteers, church groups and charities that continue to offer hope to those most affected; draws particular attention to groups such as Excellent Development, a British charity that has constructed 200 sand dams in Kenya, offering help and hope to Kenyans in such a way as to combat drought and corruption; and expresses the hope that support for their, and other, such ventures will be sufficient to allow them to expand their efforts and bring assistance to millions more throughout the East African region.
