Lesotho is the only country in the world that lies entirely above 1,000 m.
The country receives a relatively high amount of precipitation from its unique geography.
Water is funnelled out of the dam, entering a series of tunnels, that eventually takes it into the Vaal river system in South Africa .
Despite being water rich, the country remains economically poor, despite being just 1km from the dam.
A deal has been signed to take Lesotho ’s water more than 700 km, into Botswana .
Despite being able to see the Katse dam from the window of her house, Ms Mosiyoa says it has bought nothing positive to her life.
She says: "This dam has n’t done anything for us. Nothing has been done for us".
