Cholera and other waterborne diseases continue to affect those living in poverty in the Greater Northern Bhar el Ghazal region. As part of our cholera response project, we’re appealing to NGOs, churches, governments and well-wishers to help us construct 151 latrines and drill 61 water points.
Community water supply is instrumental in ensuring increased access to safe water helping to improve health conditions, reduce the burden of women and children searching for clean water and increase productive time in households.
The success from this project will provide new opportunities and frontiers for engaging private sector companies and working with organized youth groups to address chronic youth poverty.
