Real impact in Peru
On the outskirts of Lima, Peru, a group of neighbours and volunteers banded together to tackle their issue of limited access to safe drinking water. For four years, Lizbeth was part of the team that collected evidence that the poorest communities were paying more for poor-quality water.
With support from CAFOD's local partner, Lizbeth and her community took the report to the government and spoke in citizen forums in Lima. As a result, they were supplied with tanks and equipment that dramatically improved their water quality.
Everyone worked together to install the tanks, building not just infrastructure but community bonds. Lizbeth's neighbourhood now has reliable access to clean water that protects their health every single day.
"The most important thing is [water] has brought together all neighbours in the district," Lizbeth said.
