O water where art thou


Water is a scarce resource in Somalia. This scarcity is not caused by lack of water in the country but rather lack of human resources (as well as machinery). It does not take much to dig a well but in many parts of the country, ordinary citizens find it difficult in doing so because most of the land is rocky and need machines to drill. There are many concerned citizens and/or organizations that have been digging wells for anyone to use, free of charge. You just need some sort of bucket to carry it, as this woman is doing .
