Emmanuel Nkundimana, 27, wife Claudine Uwamahoro, 23 and child. Karaba village, Mwumba cell, Busengo sector, Gakenke district. Here he brings in part of his bean harvest from land rented in the marshes. He was an orphan, lost both parents in 1998 at 14, and looked after his younger sister. Before the programme he used to work on other people's land to earn enough to eat. With the pig he got from the programme he sold the piglets and bought a cow. Now he rents land to farm and has a saving account with SACCO. Photograph by Mike Goldwater
