Access to Water

We develop initiatives to provide access to running water in the areas near our operations in Argentina.

In 2022, following a diagnosis and consultation with professionals to assist the most remote and isolated families in the communities neighboring our operations in accessing the water network service, we carried out a project that included the installation of 2,000 meters of piping and a booster pump.

In 2023, we completed the project, successfully connecting 13 families to the water network. This resulted in significant improvements in the quality of life for each household and ensured that the Batalla de Salta de Caspinchango School has a secondary water supply source to address frequent issues with its well.

We achieved 100% access to the water network for families in one of our communities.

Diagnosis in Uruguay

Convinced that understanding the communities deeply is essential for taking action and driving transformation, we conducted a mapping of institutions across all neighborhoods in the area of influence, focusing on those attended by the Los Olivos community in Paysandú. Additionally, we carried out a house-to-house diagnosis categorized as follows:

• Prosperity Area: Development, work, gender equality

• People Area: Health, education, housing

• Planet Area: Air, water, animals, land

• Peace Area: Conflicts, community issues

Using this information, we engaged in dialogue with local authorities and presented the main challenges that residents perceive as necessary and priority areas for improving and developing the neighborhood. These include issues related to traffic, waste management, and employment.
