Water: Supporting Water Resources and Sustainability
Since 2010, constructing wells and developing springs have resulted in 2700 households (an estimated 16,800 individuals) having access to clean water. To sustain this effort, we are now focusing on assessing these working conditions of these wells and springs for long-term sustainability practices.
