Cisterna Comunitária para Recolha e Armazenamento das Águas das Chuvas
This project aims to address water accessibility issues in Fundura, Santiago Island. Fundura is located within the buffer zone of Parque Natural da Serra Malagueta. A great majority of locals engage in small farming activities. Nonetheless, lack of water is always a huge constraint. To respond to this problem the local association, in partnership with the park, plan to build a community reservoir with a capacity of 150 m3.

Project Characteristics and Results
Policy Impact
By being implemented in a Natural Park area, the project had a direct impact on the National Action Plan for the Environment and specifically on the Serra de Malagueta Natural Park management Plan
Project sustainability
The fact that water is available in reasonable quantities is a major gain for the community. This will entail that during the dry season, men and women do not have to walk distances for water or crops may have greater chances or survival, and therefore impact on community livelihoods.
