Résumé:
Cette étude présente les résultats d'un projet pilote mené par World Vision pour les communautés de réfugiés au Akkar dans lesquelles sont installés des systèmes de collecte d'eau de pluie sur deux sites. Cette intervention vise à améliorer l'accès des communautés vulnérables à l'approvisionnement en eau et s'inscrit dans le cadre de certains des objectifs de développement durable (ODD). Abstract:
Since 2012, World Vision Lebanon (WVL) had been providing water-trucking services for vulnerable
communities in areas where there is a shortage of clean and accessible water sources. Hence, water-trucking
interventions are costly, not sustainable and environmentally demanding.
In this context, and to find more sustainable, efficient, and environmentally friendly methods, WVL conducted
a pilot project in ITSs for refugee communities in Akkar, where it is installing rainwater-harvesting systems in
two sites. This intervention aims to increase access of vulnerable communities to water supply and it aligns with
some of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as SDG 3 (good health and well-being) by providing a
safe water supply to avoid disease transmission, as well as SDG 6 (clean water and sanitation for all).
