Water problems in the Sahel
Hi
Is this a problem of polluted or contaminated water which needs to be sanitized/disinfected or is it a shortage of potable water?

Hi Joseph, I agree perfectly with Chieko you need to specify the kind of water system you want to develop because there are several water systems that are suitable for arid and semi-arid regions like the sahel.

I have been involved in some water supply projects in southern Angola. The solutions depend on the hydrological and hydrogeological conditions of each site as well as the community where they will be implemented. The site analysis and geophysical and socioeconomic framework are fundamental to the definition of sustainable solutions. Best regard's, Carlos
