Partnership & Capacity Building
Water is indispensable for human health. Water is also crucial for sustainable development, including the preservation of our natural environment and the alleviation of poverty and hunger. Clean water is especially crucial for a rural community like Yimbo that relies on small subsistence agriculture and fishing. We believe education and health are interconnected. The school and the village generally lack clean water which results in poor sanitation and environmental health. The closest water supply is approximately 3 miles away. The school has two latrines without running water.
