Project Detail
Bokoro is a village that raises livestock and this village is 13 km from the main road. Since they are so far away, they have to travel very long distances to get to a traditional well and draw water. The water they draw from is not even clean enough for them to drink. This hand pump well will dramatically improve the lives of these villagers because they will not have to travel such long distances anymore.
Chad is Africa`s fifth-largest nation suffers from inadequate infrastructure and internal conflict. Poverty is rife, and health and social conditions compare unfavorably with those elsewhere in the region.
After the war ended, people started to come back to the villages to reside. However, as the war devastated the area, there is no infrastructure founded. In particular, there is a serious water scarcity problem. Good Neighbors, Somang Society and The Korea Daily are joining the efforts to provide drinking water and prevent children from diseases caused by consumption of dirt water. |
