Drinking Water System Guatemala

The “Water for Health and Hygiene” project focuses on increasing access to clean drinking water and improving hygiene conditions in the community of Chiquim Guaxcux in Guatemala. To this end, a drinking water supply system with gravity pipes was developed specifically for low-income families in the region in collaboration with our project partner Tamahú Guatemala. In addition, local education programs were organized to create a deep understanding and awareness of the importance of water and hygiene. The entire project has already led to a reduction in water-related diseases and is thus making a significant contribution to improving the community’s quality of life.
