Start Date: 2026
End Date: N/A

Description

Rehabilitation of water reservoirs in the departments of Choluteca and El Paraiso through the installation of high-density geomembrane, to reduce seepage losses and extend the availability of water captured during the rainy season. The stored water is used to irrigate crops such as sorghum, maicillo and vegetables, and for domestic use in the communities, benefiting approximately 1,500 farming families. Its objective is to strengthen the capacity of families to sustain production during the dry season and cope with climate variability and change.
