Key takeaway Over 60 days, 1,350,000 litres of safe water were distributed to 500 households, reaching 3,000 people.
A recent emergency response effort delivered safe water to drought-affected households. Over 60 days, 1,350,000 litres of safe water were distributed to 500 households, reaching 3,000 people. This was achieved through water trucking, with 135 trucks offloading into storage tanks.
The response also involved rehabilitating two solar-powered systems, working with village committees to secure safe and inclusive access. A Village Relief Committee ensured dignified water access for women and girls. Further details of the response, including training and verification efforts, are available from the source.
The response aimed to provide safe, inclusive, and lasting access to water.
