probably low cost projects, finding innovative ways to reuse the human waste. and we meet on an environmental activist in gonna drawing attention to for you to want to waste in a most extraordinary way past. how much do you know about for kind of classical music? the meeting about n as in nigeria who's passion, it's about the to the child offer a legal the hi. i'm eddie michael junior and you are welcome to the program. cholera is rubbish in communities in south africa, so 5 is the more on that the people have died in the outbreaks and hundreds i 2nd with a what's up on disease. so how could this happen in africa's 2nd largest economy?

citizens outraged by government's failure to address water and sanitation issues about decades. so it advocates, precedents that are on pasa, can see that his government's failure to deal with the crisis dw, and use africa waiting to the worst effect that area in galton province from where the privilege machinery takes up the story. so this is a new, it used to be a mother of 3 here with the children until they call it a camera to how much crow assessed the disease killed his 7 year old daughter. and then 4 days later it took in 9 year old son, split the switch to come to comprehend hit loss will understand how his children court the disease from okay, why not? my suspicion is that they got toilet up from there. what distributed by truck on, on with my children never used to wander around in the community. they only played in the firm, but i am shocked to how they could disc contracted. they call it

a coordinator here, but pad goodness, hulu is not alone. the residents feel powerless to this. what does that to you suspect that this one is causing us before that we can pay? yeah. and watch out. people die. you because of these merits please. we asking a couple of me to read it temporarily to see what the hospital has been set up. you know, how much cross to kids for call it our patients for more than to the kids this community or how must correct outside victoria so that if it goes administrative capital has struggled with access to clean water residents. i'm no use to leave a side by side with dump sites like this one, know, call it or his hits the community type. what's that? what's declared on safe to drink more than 10 years ago. now people are only

drinking water distributed by trucks from bullhorn. but some see that the water could be contaminated to as the old yes source is the rule. so spinning from drain down to streams that supply the main what else will sees? you know, how much crap. why? oh, koya has been called on in other parts of africa. it was never imagined that call it i would impact south africa the most industrialized country on the continent. you know how much crow sewage is flowing every way, residents here in greece and the government in the saying that this situation is been neglected for too long. the man of the local, i'm in the study to seize. it will take one set of effort to fix the problem. i have my administrative at the end of a long line of failures and excuses. the central problem is waiting. you source

the money to upgrade the fall is going to run into the buildings which exceeds the capacity of associates one load to undertake for people like they see that he's quote, come forth fixing the problem. now want to bring his children back, know that dozens of people we have already succumbed to the disease. from all of this last spring and leslie, patrick, profess, off chemistry. how do university of the western cape, south africa. hello, and welcome to the program. now you work with what security and what top quality on the siege that is the science advisory group on imagine sees now say, says that the color are related. that's where our voice level. so why away the allowed to happen? well, in south africa we have a really just off the state of the p as in terms of how senate session um most of

our wastewater treatment plants up for non functional. and unfortunately, that's the top of the to that should have been checking that's not been taken and in fictions left, these people sprayed across the street. i mean, it's much big. got problem isn't that because they also want to be why didn't collapse of what top treatment facilities across south africa. tell us really, how bad is the situation? the situation is wisdom is coming my opinion because we've got really close to 90 percent of our wastewater treatment facilities that's on the functional, fully functional and pleasurable to treatment system. so i'm this equivalent top of state of dilapidation and lack of maintenance. um,

the just doesn't seem to be the political will to do something about ensuring that these facilities which also essential are actually created for and my time clock that should be so is that how your, uh, put the blame on a government scene? does no political will because that's the question i was gonna ask. that's why it hasn't government failed to address the issue to really in many ways. the reason for it is that uh, budgets that are located on up sprint property or st. mismanaged and that stuff, or not skilled or are included in positions which they not competent to actually be doing with the owner. this the consequence management people piece away with absolute negligence and nobody called him to account and the different government to park that stone told one another to account. so the department of autumn

segmentation laptops to account by the department of health by the department of environmental the fees. so i guess what you're saying is a lot needs to be done on the administrative level of the government, but, but just to be clear, is it sets in that what talk contamination is the cause of this color outbreak. i don't if anybody can really check down the cause of the ok. right. and i think that's like trying to conduct to which front, because some unfortunate individual might quotes the disease of even go to the, to south africa and dean of to that. the virus of the bacteria sprayed to o wastewater because these most edible sanitation and a lot of if and go straight into rivers from which people think cool, which people use. and i think trying to find the actual cause of the outbreak. his life. now we know that the bacteria exist and that if you

don't take public key or if you're west for this is executive sort of thing that does happen right. time because we've seen cases outside of golfing. that's not mean that is ease of spreading. yes, they seems to be bought a few outbreaks. the 1st one starts at that time and scroll. but since being, if being outbreaks in other seem to and one can only presume that people are traveling and splitting the bacteria as like a perhaps not everybody is a properly ill who you spoke to get, you know, while they're traveling on just doesn't know it's very well known that human saw the picture for this particular bacteria. okay, thank you very much. leslie patrick, profess off chemistry at the university of the western cape south africa. now

kenya has been suffering from an even west cholera outbreak bounds south africa with a blaine penned on force on occasion, especially in the nations informal settlements of our innovative ways of ensuring that clean water gets to the people. and that the sewage doesn't get anywhere near the drinking water supply. did of use fedex marine gas when to look at the project in my vasa, just outside, and i, robi, this truck is delivering what most people will drive that gets a golf human excrement. in a few days, which will be turned into because the method that ensure that no one would event suspect a waste of the original product be this is because to lead the exist address there . so that just did sundry, it mix 3 of so that which is also dried. then after that is combined to mix get, which is the final product, a tendency to use as growing reputation. but most of the scientists on

infrastructure was designed for smaller populations. the growing number of people, it means with management system. i've drawn me another feel, but human risk can also be a valuable resource. like, oh, that's not just power. that could be fertilizer. that could be animal feed, that could be a macro nutrients that the soil needs that could be fuel. there's so many possibilities. and so, and i know that we don't want to think or talk about proof because we think it's gross. but we need to remember it is a basic human necessity, just like anything else that if we deal with it properly, it can be really useful. these restaurants in a robi, has been using the big catch for of a 5 years. the see the big catch give them more bun, same, and directly in us. also a few. l. aging is the money to $360.00 degrees i to some pizza in. they will be very advantageous to us. they're very cost effective,

their environmental spending and the in terms of quality of production. let's see now why would improve as well as the sliver surveys really good and very list procedures, 90 percent of wasting stuff because she typed before being docked into entitlements . just for fun with management and practices that's of the way a waste is going back to it into fuel. then i can get to engine my pizza in these will be minutes normally times from why that because i mean and these more debris kits. i even good deals for kenya's woodlands. more of them means less need to cut down trees for firewood. so from foot to pete size, what goes in on one end? let's come oh, it's bad. so you're watching dw news africa still to come. african classical music for the world. we meet

a violinist in nigeria who's conducting her own campaigns for a new offer, a house in lake us, the that before we get into that, let's go to gonna weigh more than 25 percent of coastal communities depends on what type bodies for their livelihoods. but these vital resources are rapidly losing their beauty and purity due to constance pollution. so to draw attention to the problem, the climate activist recently set out on an unprecedented full 150 to allow me to swim in gun as boats. i like the world's largest man made lake. she's calling on a thought reduced to add an entry, present worth of bodies for a clean, a sustainable future. use. isaac collegiate reports from the region

active is finding different way effects that day. it's passionate about guidance, environment, prove of that it has swimming through gun and slick volta for more than 40 days, covering on a viral root of 450 kilometers. this leak, the world's largest at the fisher was of why it's one of the few what a waste in ghana still cleaning now forehead to swimming. it is so encouraging and so amazing to be able to swim level to river like this. and i'd love to see other works for buddies and so on. and specifically across the, the swimming the, again, to test expedition was to draw attention to the pollution of goodness, what the bodies, some of which come from 2nd hand clothing waste 50 mediums that getting hung clothing items point to gonna every week. over 50 st. ends up in west heaps, like here in the clay like going in

a cry that is competing against environmental pollution was organized by there or foundation scientists, isabella brew, it's parts of the team. harold was to take what the samples at various points for testing. in this to a poet bowed, she analyzed the what the samples for several elements in this smaller bird tree. it depends on the places where we uh, if we are close to villages, for example, we will be collecting some samples for back to a logical tests. if we are close to factories or industrial areas, we will be checking for heavy metals. for example, diagnosed with a bodies continued to be heavily polluted, largely from mining activities, money just of the what the resources see. many of them are in critical condition. jaclyn sand about the divest, dating impact,

my director of the water source of the southwest, the river bodies, the physical gas ethics is not as good because the level of the t squared high level settlement into the system. so you have high dvd t and climate change is also compounding the problem with somewhat a bodies drain out the window of what does that leave up with fluids and kind of continued for several months, 8 months, because now it is with a shuttle that kind of hole into what the, within 2 months is dry. so in case of any droughts that is, so i mean induced job that is outside the normal cycle of driving and the feeling. then it means that we didn't, we just will just be in danger. direct a wants to continue to raise public awareness and hope is that the gun is what the ways one, the, the free of all pollution. not just the rich wards,

costco coding, the now, when you're thinking either and music you think after will be right. not surprising because that has a cheap, remarkable global popularity, but the same cannot be said for african classical music, where opportunities will at is limited. and the chances of performing osland in an effort to change this, the best stop block has drawn oprah foundation. the home going initiative is dedicated to revitalize in classical music and nigeria, while these extra coma how small from lagos, the it's the last you won't be hustles before the big nights. members of the best that

focus, trying to open up the foundation. performing advocacy, natalie, of the after classical concept series. illegals, the violinist rustling. i mean you set up the foundation in 2016 to promote music by africa. classical composer and showcase african pallets. every culture has their own classical music and with this orchestra and with the foundation we set out to discover on classical music because of such a musical people africans. and for contemporary composers, you also have those who have been composing but have not will catch just to perform that much. so we take it upon ourselves to that classical music and nigeria has its roots in the colonial erupt. and it sees parts of the music curriculum bucket struggles to get heard above the sounds of modern pop or nigeria as p most ruby.

it's a real challenge for young pallets. the main, your issue is work next of what the next. in fact, in terms of i might go into the plane, or am i going to find something else to do? this is, this is the major issue we are in the country. it's, it's, it's what goes in to a lot of people mind. that's why you can't seem to go to a classical musicians then to go get jobs, go find something that was just to survive the best. the foundation wants to fix that by providing a stage and opportunities. the highlights of the season is the performance of a web, gmc by nigerian composer ship. where's the expense of an upper sun given unit by language that tells the tale of

a soldier is told of for his failure to cook, a tasting it will be the nigerian staple. the music might have its roots in europe, but did the choice of language on the subject months to help nigerians connect think that, uh, the country were evolving and i think people can really get into this because of real b, c to the world. so this can also be to the world, the best that focus right on oprah foundation has more concepts planned from up to . but each wants to bring more after your classical music to the wide public found because of the new says the main goal is to establish a legal spell for a house, for classical works of african heavy to the

round of applause for the best, the orchestra that had a very special round of applause, but it's found rosalie niece, who joins me now. you're about to see how fast she is. hello, rosalie. welcome to the program. so you want emission to promote the music by african classical composes. why is that so important? because in africa we have a lot of music, beautiful music, not just a full beats and high life. we also have folks music and art music. i think it's important that someone, some of us promote this sort of music to show what manner of variety. you see like they exist in a musical genre on the continent. but as you said, we're not talking about apropos for highlight for his life. well apple beads, but classical music in africa. is it really a cup of tea?

yeah, well i really the good life is a cup of tea. we enjoyed good things and why not also the expression of our people in the we never had before in an art form in a very formal form. if you like, you know, presented in a way that we've never presented our music before. seriously, but at the same time telling a story which is the off part of the expression, you know, and it's something that has been very well received by audiences. classical music is known to have its origins from the western world. so what really is african classical music of the, like the name says it's classical music by african composes. and so you will have it in an african deal. and when you hear it immediately, you pick it out, you say, this isn't typically your pam, the expression is different, which is needed. all cultures all over the world have their own form of music. and

it sounds similar to the classical music, but it is not quite classical music and i thought it would be important for the will to hear what comes out of africa. very soon, we hope to move around the continental, soon as we have settled the nature of property, so to speak, when we the stablish quite a catalogue of compose us, we will start to ask of african countries and compose us for this. i mean, look at the time one is trying to do with the spotlights on for in this case, i general music that is not very popular. that obviously challenges. can you tell us some of the main ones? yeah. well, the, the biggest one of course is funding because art and culture is funded here in my part of the country of my thought of the world nigeria. and so we have some for sponsorship to run our programs. we haven't found any, but we keep running our programs, they need help on our own. it's been very tough moving it forward and spreading the woods because we're not able to put certain things together with p r and marketing

of all of that tedious stuff. that costs what we, what we keep working on. we keep our trusting the right talent and the right composes, and which time we believe it will all come together. i like your optimism one of your games for i for a classical music, there's 2 found on over our house in lagos, nigeria. how would that be different from existing institutions on the continents of the well in west africa, we don't have enough for house in my gerry, for instance, we have a seat and national theater. and we have our culture where we started performing after classical concepts series. and we have the musical society of nigeria, that'd be have stages. but you don't have anything that is dedicated, that is built specifically for the performance of classical music and opera. and so it's very difficult to perform of these, although the schools exist,

the music exists, the works exist, but we don't have the stage for this. the isn't the technology. we have very small stages we perform now at the mike had been with us and has the aliens from set. and um, it's all very similar that the stages quite small. and so we sent off for a house, we would, we're looking at including the entire community really because on opera house is owned by a community of people. and this is, the goal is to bring people in on the vision of understanding that our music is a lot more than what we see now. there's a lot more expression for the ethic grants i've said i've had to beverly and then the best uh, orchestra found. thank you on all the best. and that's it. with you now with the best, the orchestra, the foreman, or phone to the top of the by george b. z. enjoy, bye for now. the
