We train leaders and young people committed to water, promoting programs that educate, inspire and promote sustainability.
We strengthen food security with technified irrigation and sustainable practices that care for the environment and ecosystems.

Political, social, economic and administrative processes and structures used to develop, regulate and manage water resources.
In the Lima Andes, rainfall is becoming increasingly erratic due to climate change. During the dry season, the water available in rivers and streams is drastically reduced, affecting rural communities that depend on it for their livelihoods.
The qochas, ancestral rainwater reservoirs, are today recognized as Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) that make it possible to plant water and ensure its availability in critical times.
111 thousand m³
of water stored annually.
+ 37 thousand m²
of new water mirrors formed.
44
people trained in water planting and harvesting
4 qochas
operational for planting and harvesting water.
3 farming communities
reduced their climate vulnerability.
Investing in qochas means returning water to the ecosystem, strengthening sustainability commitments under the Water Stewardship approach.
A concrete action that contributes to the fulfillment of the 2030 Agenda and strengthens the relationship with local communities.
Join us in improving qochas and let's build together sustainable and resilient communities in the face of climate change.
