International Women’s Rights Day Water, a key to women’s and girls’ emancipation

In 2024, 1001fontaines expanded its efforts to Bangladesh, a country facing severe challenges in access to drinking water, particularly in the southwestern region, where arsenic contamination and increased salinity of water sources endanger the health of rural communities. To address this, 1001fontaines partnered with the local NGO Uttaran to launch a pilot project aimed at jointly building a sustainable model for access to safe drinking water in this area.
