Myanmar
In 2019, 1001fontaines launched a replication of its water kiosk model in rural Myanmar, among the most vulnerable countries in Southeast Asia. This initiative ended in 2023, amid a context of high insecurity.

LET’S US UPDATE
It is with great sadness that in December 2023, 1001fontaines decided to close its operations in Myanmar. Launched in 2019, our project aimed at providing safe drinking water in a sustainable way, but the global sanitary crisis and local political developments hampered our efforts to make our project sustainable. The four operational water kiosks were transferred to local communities and 1001fontaines remains available for remote support.
We sincerely thank our partners for their continued support and will not hesitate to reconsider this decision should the situation improve.
