Access to Safe Water Project

The Problem

The Chaco region of Argentina faces high urgency for water management, coupled with inadequate infrastructure resources, unemployment, social marginalization, and environmental degradation from logging and clearing of native forests. The region also faces additional challenges such as a fragile ecosystem and low annual rainfall.
