Access to water, especially during the long dry season is a major issue for most rural communities in Cambodia. The village of Ta Lek does not have a mains water supply, but they are luckier than many other areas as they have ground water that is not too deep and can be reasonably easily accessed via wells. However, chronic poverty means that community wells are very few and far between. This project aims to build many more wells throughout the community so that all houses have access to water all year without having to walk long distances to collect it.
