Well in Sansi Gandó, Benin


Background

Most of the economic resources come from the cultivation of the fields, from grazing and from the manufacture of shea butter.

The only improved source is 1 kilometer away so they use highly contaminated open wells or marigots (groundwater that rises to the surface).

Objectives

The construction of a well with a foot pump is proposed.

The project is divided into 3 phases:

  • Sensitization of the beneficiary population. Forming the water and fundraising committee for the contribution to be made by the population.
  • Social mediation. Define rules of use and schedules.
  • Infrastructure installation. Drilling of the well, installation of the pump and construction of the safety zone.
