The United States Agency for International Development (USAid) has announced the launch of two collaborations in the Philippines to improve access to clean, safe water and sanitation services.
The first partnership is with Coca-Cola Foundation Philippines (CCFPI) and the Multi-sectoral Alliance for Development (MUAD)-Negros to help protect 12 watersheds and promote sustainable livelihoods in the region. The second partnership is with the Palawan Council for Sustainable Development (PCSD) with the aim to increase efficiency in watershed management and protecting water resources. USAid’s Safe Water project will combine its science-based research, observations and experience with the human and financial resources of its partners to expand watershed security and help ensure sustainable livelihoods.
