“…Gray construction reduces the infiltration and increases the runoff [26,32,33]. The concept of RWH has inspired scientists to solve water issues in various settings, including in rural environments, to address the following: (i) drinking water supply [19,[36][37][38], (ii) erosion and flood mitigation [39,40], and (iii) food security [41][42][43][44]. Available studies aimed at convincing rural farmers and urban inhabitants to consider that RWH on their private properties could mitigate water-related problems in Africa [29,45,46].…”

“…Available studies aimed at convincing rural farmers and urban inhabitants to consider that RWH on their private properties could mitigate water-related problems in Africa [29,45,46]. In Cameroon, during the recent two decades, RWH has been investigated as a viable tool to secure safe drinking water and water to irrigate small gardens [46][47][48][49][50][51]. These studies, comparatively few in their number, cover the whole climatic spectrum of Cameroon, from the rain forest in Buea [47] and Yaoundé [46] to the dry savannah in the Far North [49].…”
