Local support for access to water, sanitation and hygiene
Preah Vihear Province – Commune of Putrea-Cambodia
This project is part of an institutional cooperation of the Loire Bretagne and Rhine Meuse Water Agencies with TSA (Tonle Sap Authority). A first identification mission was conducted in May 2015 with members of HAMAP-Humanitaire, TSA and L’OIeau in order to determine local needs and find a local partner. Following this first mission the commune of Putrea was designated as a priority area by TSA and Rainwater Cambodia was chosen to be the partner to follow the project locally. This two-phase project is part of a basin management program, and it was decided to set up similar projects in the whole area.
