This project will install solar-powered water systems in drought-hit regions of Tharparkar, Cholistan, South Punjab and other water-scarce areas of Pakistan. These systems will provide safe drinking water to communities facing extreme heat, dry wells, and long distances to water sources. Solar pumping offers a sustainable, affordable, and reliable solution for families, schools, and livestock-dependent households.
Communities in Tharparkar, Cholistan, South Punjab and similar arid regions face severe water scarcity. Wells dry up, groundwater is often saline, and people-especially women and children-walk hours daily to fetch unsafe water. Extreme heat, droughts, and climate change worsen the crisis. Lack of reliable water leads to disease, poor hygiene, livestock losses, and long-term social and economic hardship.
This project will install solar-powered submersible water pumps in rural Pakistan, providing a sustainable and reliable source of clean drinking water. These pumps will significantly reduce the reliance on unsafe water sources, preventing waterborne diseases and improving overall community health. Women and children will no longer have to walk miles for water, allowing children to attend school regularly and women to focus on income-generating activities.
Solar water systems will reduce waterborne diseases, save time and effort for families, and improve health, hygiene, and food security. Reliable access to clean water supports women, children, and livestock-dependent communities in harsh desert climates. The project strengthens resilience against drought and climate stress while enabling long-term development across Tharparkar, Cholistan, South Punjab, and other underserved regions..
