More
than 100 experts of the International
Association of Hydro geologists at a
conference in London came to the
following conclusions:
three
hundred million people in sub-Saharan
Africa currently do not have access to
clean water; Africa will not meet the UN
millennium development goal of reducing by
half the number of people without access
to clean water until 2050; reliable access
to clean water is crucial in reducing
poverty in Africa.
Based
on the principle that it is better to
teach a man how to fish than give him a
fish, ICA in
Moose Jaw has chosen to
provide a water borehole drilling rig, and
training to locals in rural Africa so that
they can develop wells in their
communities.
