THE IMPORTANCE OF BUILDING WELLS IN ETHIOPIA

By Federica Piria | Digital fundraiser

Access to clean water isn't a given for everyone. In many parts of the world, including Ethiopia, floods and droughts destroy infrastructure, making it difficult to access this basic necessity and putting the most vulnerable populations at risk.

Contributing to a rapid and effective humanitarian response is essential. Building new wells is a crucial step to ensure safe, inclusive, and integrated access to basic services for both host communities and displaced populations affected by drought.

Once the work is complete, the benefits for families are countless:

  • Safe drinking water: People will have safe water to drink and use for cooking.
  • Food security: They can irrigate fields, produce food, and raise livestock, improving food security and the availability of essential goods.
  • Health: Diseases linked to poor hygiene and contaminated water can be kept at bay, thus improving the quality of WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) services.
  • Safety and education: Women and girls will no longer have to walk for miles to find a water source, reducing dangers and allowing them to attend school.
  • Resilience: The capacity of community-level early warning systems is strengthened, allowing for more effective mitigation and management of risks associated with extreme climate events.

Every well can transform the lives of thousands of people, strengthening resilience and promoting a sustainable recovery of livelihoods. Together, we can donate water to those who don't have it!
