For four consecutive years now, each drought has been worse than the last. Last October's growing season saw 50% less rainfall than usual.
As a result, less than half of what is needed to feed the entire population is expected to be harvested in the coming months.

The project aims at the construction of a well in the
Ambinany region in order to ensure the supply of drinking water to a population where more than 50% is underage and severely affected by water-borne diseases.
Milestones
In addition to the construction of the well to alleviate drought-related problems, the project contributes to the integral development of the communities through access to water, training and awareness of water use and management.
