about visions and the people behind the verdict. catastrophe, climate change, the 45 minutes on dw, the mirrors to us. that's why we listen to their stories. reporter every weekend dw, the this is the, the news advocate coming up on the program sought after. because what have problems after decades of neglects the city of jihad is accessed. that is trying to fix things. but it's not enough. plus people still struggle to access drinking water in major shut down. what does that government

also coming up on the show by jerry and going out for this is the 5 women's wilcox with a team captain set to make history. but we look at the chances and the competition along with 3 of the african sides and look at how go busy gotten them. couple explored setting countries across africa in 5 months. so one way the highs and the lows, they'll be sharing the experience with us, the i am at the mike a junior and you are welcome to the program. what a better way, but not the dropping your think for years now. that has been the painful reality for some people across south africa. that is

a crisis with multiple causes and climate change is making things worse. but what are shortage is mainly due to the disastrous effects of human actions. i'll be diving deeper into that with a what our resource specialist and the moment a fast. let's go to johannesburg, where the city, the, what's off already have shut down the water supply to upgrade the infrastructure privilege with shining your reports on how this is affecting everyday life for residence. the clean water is a mazda head full of your williams. please of mazda of 7 children, and the youngest is a new born soul agent in the home. as to bethesda, she needs to breast feed, tenuous that i have. but here water tip has been right for days. she has to wash yourself with the pressure that's the resist stored in a warranty. and before her baby can suckle, she sees it is

a struggle to keep everything clean. it's very difficult, isn't my though, hang on, saving within your household, especially with us. and when you way me to, i was when i 7 small kids is me as well. i have 7 kids. my last one is one month old. so we have to be of what the for the children to pot, which as needs formula, i'll do it on the board. those clean the board of a small baby like this needs to be 5 able to do guns for day with those. i think a place like us, anyone who's reserves i source, did this to 10 to the tracks. it will be nice to pay the $32.00, but during the major shutdown they can only provide a partial release. it's a scramble for residents to access the limited what a trucks deployed across to the affected neighborhoods. tempest afraid is everyone rushes to feel about these white speak, the frustration directed joins with voice, many as struggling to feel the air containers, the youtube, at least in the cleaning supplies. for some,

this is the only track of the day. we oh, i'm happy because now the order go off. i notice that all of that now we did no way for to. 0 and then that would be for you by a very sick people and i don't think it's been no, it's not the real unfit. those. what does the government does is on better button, does it start even coming or no. it's been months in months in months because every time i order goes off and no one can or can tell us why or use building or of those letters is a brief shut down the treatment plans. some get is one, be seeing normal supplies for these yet aging infrastructure has been blamed for the current ones that challenges or fee shows say it is necessary to set down plans

like this $1.00 to kid out, upgrade the for the system to keep on running across the affected areas, people are asking if the effect of what the dates that running dry is key for those or responsible residents only have a limited capacity to store their reserves. when they once had for us to do make deliveries. what's he will not last long. as a family is or what the situation is expecting us back a on a daily basis. because we've gone to a washing we've gone by. we've gone through the normal, also a choice without having what the people need. what, in the one answer we ask, did the thirty's by the it is tuesday to be interviewed? joins big residents, legal. tavia williams is on the one home. the problem is that the system upgrades under weight may just improve your water supply in the future. journeyman hours

profess signing out of let's see from the university of south africa. she is a water resource management specialist. hello. thanks for joining. yeah, so run more tests as i mentioned on this project and people are going days without the tap water. what exactly is that problem being fixed and how bad is it a wallet at this point in time, the problem that drowned what it is trying to fix is they're basically replacing valves and then imputing more pipelines between some of their booster stations. and at this point in time and large part of janice biggs, are you covered by one booster station? so that's called the, i don't know if there's this station, if that station files or if there is a power outage, then large bunch of jo bags since without what does. so they are trying to address that issue. people have been complaining about what the issues for us. it's even a sketch. we saw us in some areas, why has this been going on for so long?

unfortunately, lack of electrical wellness management, what's a governance and, and basically just the, the lack of skills or the lack of knowledge that's being transferred over the years . but the primary issue that we have been sitting with is misappropriation of funds . and then the complete lack of political will to try and address these issues. us . yeah, in the metropolitan areas we have, it's a little bit easier if you can pull it that in the rural areas. and this one it down there or it is. the thing was what major water shortages which weeks on end, and not just a couple of days like you're enjoying this big power comes out africa meta handle. that's what the problem is especially, you know, talking about some of these, you mentioned, including at the aspect of climate change which is going to even make shortages west slow. we will have to start the pointing people with the appropriate knowledge and skills in the right areas. most of our municipalities are dysfunctional of

a $150.00 of them are close to collapse, 40 to the have already collab. so there is a major issue with local municipalities which are responsible for the governance of wastewater treatment works, what's your infrastructure, etc. so if us in the country and obviously the government, if they can appoint people that have the necessary skills as well as the necessary knowledge retention and immediate, the registries that we currently experiencing and try to avoid an overall price of where we sitting with majorly polluted water resources that can be used and then also want to infrastructure that has officially then collapse. meaning that no tabs will come on which will come out about tabs. let me get a quick response on this aspect. uh some places are much better recycling, rain, water, and waste water. and i mean, in south africa. rain, what size me waiting? quite a wow. hasn't it?

that's not how this huge i in terms of recycling reading wasn't waste water in south africa and across africa. in terms of rain was augustine. yes, that is a very good um solution, but that's supposed to be implemented in our rural areas way. what the infrastructure is either absent or it has collab storage. so right. which obvious thing is fine in terms of and subsistence funding and then also washing up everything. but that's wondering you, what do they awesome health concerns when it gets to rainwater? obvious thing, especially you to the bacteria that can grow in the water when they are stored in the tanks for a long period of time in terms of other solutions. you've mentioned water re use. so i'm going to college in areas already during that. and however, it can obviously be improved upon and we should also look at this alone as ation. so there, because of a long coast line with that, with ocean being an untapped resource, i know they're also looking at um, balls,

especially within a real areas once again. but once again, the issue will be, who is going to maintain that infrastructure that they're going to try and put day and goals or to be of a suitable quality for us to avoid future wondering related illnesses such as color uh right now to see what the results management specialist. thank you very much for your time. so what i'd be morocco is on the set africa, all nigeria super falcons for african teams, are competing a busy as women's world cup in australia and new zealand, which starts on the 20th of july. and i, jerry, i is the confidence most successful side in the women's game. what they've been special this time is that they will be led by the captain who is set to play and has 6th wealth cap tournament and record for an african play, a male or female deed of use, a lease. i took them,

i caught up with her and some teammates in lake us. i had off the tournament and it'd be is no stranger to a top flight soccer nigeria, as women's football team captain, is scrolling through the years after representing a country for 2 decades. ok next week, the 14 year old will be put in on the national jersey for has 6th well to golf tournament. an african record because of the love of the game determination is 0 though is i want to get so that's the. busy goal so the highest level of football gives me boy, but actually at how he started playing football, i always tell them i sat there for both of my mom. so i started taking everything like and i from i was like 4 or 5. why not korea didn't stats quite stuff very. she didn't make i international debut in 2003,

but on the mass says and lot as seems changed in the women's game. well, what was that a play? and i know i'm paid for money. i just paid for by so on, and that's all me. i will say this is, this is why you like i was so excited i knew together. this is that we've been like, it is in the morning when i says off, i'm going to take it off. i'm in a despite my jury, as of it's probably an amazing achievement. i've been a source of inspiration for have seen makes i think, uh its uh, it shows that the level of disability has, and a physical, you know, how much more she was able to take care of as of and also in the clinic. mean, she has the games and she's in veteran, she's the captain going into the world. go for the stime is, is incredibly amazing. this goes to show that age is not a fact though it is the state of the mind that keeps you performing. that state of mind appears as strong as ever and may have given no indication that she plans to

retire as an inspiration for africa's next generation. you don't get. busy sending messages over the time. how do that is, how do you do that? know that i'm even going for these things. i have so much mr. his right to his by the initial, it's a little more like that's how something doing that before i'm is you know about, it just makes me want to go more and more. it'd be easier to. i mean to meet her. it seemed like the youngest, the group stage of the tournament, nigeria will be making the 9th women's welcome appearance, the only african team to do so small this let's bring in julia de la and award winning sports dentist to joins us now from brisbane, australia, where she will be covering the world capital julia. it's so nice to see you. so while nigeria has a lot to celebrate that also major financial and organizational challenges that affects the team. how bad is it?

as i'm thank you very much. i'm any good to be here and the fact you mentioned these things continue to click women's football, especially in africa and even beyond an open issues of that nature, given little to no attention. like we've seen in a couple of weeks, we expect that they will be resolved even before the tournament kicks off next week . and as you may also know, this has also attracted the i a of the quotes that is on run, the waldrum, who also slammed the end of what he thinks um, misappropriation of funds. and he also is that, but um it is settling, all right, the plan out as far back as um, 2 years ago we've seen that with um, countries like gonna and even come around and other so this is nothing new, but we hope that this will not happen again, going forward. so and i'd say it's the most successful african team in the women's world cup. what are the chances this time around?

well, i'm interesting. i think um they can definitely go far problems or not. um the score looks very hungry, fullest access. i've seen them train and um it is not to have to tell you how the lives of a man maybe who is making has seth will come just like on brussels, martha. so the experience is bad for something like almost the central. sheila, which you kind of mentioned the falklands without mention her name, it will be a fine opportunity for head to show up once again on the wall stays as she has done um open. this is also a sport with the great depths of talent. and that can be to the advantage that in a very top group with holes, australia, canada, and republic of ireland, and then mean will be to get totaled back, which i think is possible. not just, i'd say, yeah, this also south africa is, i'm the, and we'll go break it down for us. what can we expect from these sites,

as you can expect, a lot time with a finding mazda is that they play the sol. how vs done the gemini, so you can expect a lot of absolutely in barbara vonda who is very good for them beyond the captain who is ready to lead the on stuff like these other teams. i think it should be good for them coming into the fast world cap and also desktop applicants set top. you have class will know that the month of this competition they've been there before and would like to put themselves in their individual way even when they have issues of the book as possible. back home in south africa, make no mistake, also with more roku, with a kind of infrastructure in at the end of the pump into the game, the men's game and the women's game, the out of the team. you may need to pay attention to the quick pro misapplied unit, invest a pos just to get his version from. would be a men team that into sold the applicant, teens in the competition. i'm not just going to be in the push. will this

rightfully so? look at the end of the day, no african team has won the woman's world copies 9 times, attempting to do so. so that's been a long way to go. what needs to be done to improve the quality of african woman's football at home and abroad? and will take a lot to do in the right things. and that will mean going to be as companions with the very best, who are competitive over time, and have a lot of talent and discipline to win a big games and also big stadiums to have the correct to have the car as much. so even with spend all the pressure that comes a plane of this top level, you also need to, like i mentioned, you have big tournaments temperaments and that helps as well. you see the lights of usa, brazil. and even though in england, they have that big tournament temperament, so it will be really, really crucial for these african teams. technical direction, i think, is also key. who you have, you know, dugout,

this is as important as the players who may come back past 11. so we will have to do more behalf they do things differently and see what the possible outcomes will be. thanks a lot sports, not a student bill for your time. thank you very much for holding now, how many countries in africa have you visited? alto, 54 countries, i have been to 5 years. i know that's not good enough, but when you're gone couple headway to 12 and maureen, again from uganda, island admission to inspire more africans to discover they are confident they travel through that teen countries in africa on a 5 month road trip. now why that was fun? it wasn't always an easy journey, so they are calling for policy changes to make it easier for african taurus to

travel within africa. i just want us to highlights from the truth of a lifetime sign, boating, and then it may be in desperate epic you can control maureen. again, an edge without twilio spent 5 months on a road trip through africa, covering 13 countries and 22000 kilometers. black african tourist, they found for a rarity on the continent and often to face strict visa regulations and west. and travelers. beyond the challenges, the capital one to to reflect the choice of discovering africa from trying local dishes at roadside restaurants, including southern africa and delicacy. my pony wants to exploring landmarks like the grapes involved. we ruined unless you choose minutes and jani falls right. that

is one of been a long, long as when cycling freddy had just a couple of drive into malawi, they decided to help out with relief efforts. throughout the trip they shut up take phone line, realizing that was huge and trust and what they were doing. empowering other africans to experience travel became key to the johnny. 1 because been amazing, never they imagine, but i told explore this country this much online so much. it's just loading unloading. i'm just just having fun to couple of sites for years to funds this rep . they want to show the africans can travel to consummate. and next time that touring, they hope to see more african tourists on the road. the lovely couple had

a child with maureen and edward and asked why they had settled on this african road trip to the bottom. it was to understand that appreciate coincidence and then keep trying document, because ultimately we want to get to pull out of this the trip. it's so going to the little interest because we share between social media and we have to realize that the slow, many effort comes with the content, quote, actually don't know the basics of traveling across the continents. so for us, cuz it will break and we'll walk it beeps, but also exploring the continents appreciating the diversity and the stimuli reaches and ultimately documenting these experiences for other frequencies of trouble. let's talk about some of the main challenges you encounter because it wasn't all fine. was it not at all. i think we're in context quite a number of challenges, especially pushing bought of a couple of what as we had

a couple of issues but not the didn't to read that to absolute each. uh that was the one of the main challenges we had. a lot of them was also races in some parts of the continent, but we did expect that as well. and with my patch for a lot in collin as well. yeah. but megan megan just across the board are crossing, i mean, your racism aspect is quite interesting for me to hear, but also one of the main challenges that people talk about. what africans that traveling within the hour and continent is that getting a visa is challenging. crossing board is, is challenging. what was, what was the main challenge of it? or i think the main challenge was the cost of the visa. a good one as mission will be to cross the course of interest in very big issue. so we need to be those for 3 countries that was sold off because i'm big on the medium. i'm just, uh,

between the tool box we spent about almost $700.00 on just 3 be then wow. so you can imagine how much would that send the fuel or for other things to use that money for that we paid on visas. so if we could have a policy change our own back maple village, people of the guns, of course, the fortunately is the key to college and look to the gun to arisen in the country . mm. i mean, how do i do? you've mentioned before that some of the challenges you found some sort of solutions to them. what way some of them i think a lot of them was to just find a way of relating with people which found that a lot of points. if you, if you bought through the, made up with a course, if you have a lot of challenges, one of the corruption, the edges and the closing. and so we did, i did very creative idea of trying to look for the, the list use. what are points that open the in the month,

but uh we managed to find a couple very low keep what up points well across from and from, from that point. we absolutely have a lot of this move this dry. i'm wishing with knowing that i'm not wrong. so if you few, at the time, you want to find the give you a little time in terms of gender and welcome to the country. and there's room for small and function times the deals connection between you and then the question that i mentioned it to me that it's more it's most 12 questions. oh yeah. what up points, are you talking about some of the major challenges? well, let's talk about also what surprised you the most? i think for me the, for the, for the most surprises. insomnia. we love and we're one of the well, yeah. and for us that's, i'm think it will be new kinda everybody thought about it was like know, it kinda flushed and real quick. what i would need, i think,

which was quite surprised. but also, i guess, in terms of the control structure, the network in southern africa was by to pop in trenches like my media solve actually tough. it's wireless and even somebody in the network was quite amazing and it's something that awesome stuff should inspire. yeah. okay, that's good to know. look, i have so many questions about very little time to dig into it, so we'll have it here. i'll get the rest of the info back stage, maureen again and edward at 12. thanks a lot for your time. thank you very much. for having this and that's how we wrap it up for more about star is go to d, w dot com slash africa, or visit us on facebook and twitter. we'd be with pictures of maureen and edward's journey across africa. i am faddie mike, a junior, so you soon bye for now the,
