The need

Some villages have subsoil that is too hard, or a groundwater table too deep (> 50 m), for a village well to be effective.

A deep borehole with a solar pump is the only sustainable solution.

The action

Drilling by a Nigerien company, equipment with solar panels + submerged pump + water tower.

Training of local management committees for maintenance.
