Access to safe water in schools

Thanks to the cooperation with South American institutions, Agua Segura (Argentina) and Piamerica S.A. (Uruguay), we have been developing the Community Project, access to safe water, to join the country’s efforts to contribute to the reduction of the risk of gastrointestinal diseases among school children due to the consumption of contaminated water with a high load of microorganisms coming from the tap of the I.E.P. Simón Bolívar and the Educational Institution N° 20605 Virgen del Carmen.

 

In this regard, the project will include on-site measurement of the quality of drinking water for human consumption from school taps, and based on the results, microbiological filters will be designed and implemented, in addition to improving the drinking water infrastructure. We will also develop 2 awareness campaigns that will address the topics Know your water and Know your filter to raise awareness about access to safe water.
