Description:
In El Salvador, one of the most water-stressed countries in Central America, local water boards play a critical role in conserving this critical resource and managing communities access to water. The IAF supports community-led solutions to strengthen governance of needed natural resources, addressing factors driving migration out of Central America. IAF grantee the Centro de Estudios Aplicados en Ecologa y Sustentabilidad Ambiental (ECOS) is providing training and technical assistance to members of the Association of Water Boards, as well as 25 local water boards to improve water management in the municipalities of Libertad Centro and Libertad Norte in the department of La Libertad, El Salvador. This grant is part of the IAF's efforts to address the root causes of irregular migration in Central America.
