The National Corporation for Indigenous Development (CONADI) has distributed 1.3 billion pesos in irrigation and drainage subsidies to 128 indigenous families in Chile’s Los Ríos Region. These funds support projects including wells, canalization, and technical irrigation to assist Mapuche families living in water-limited terrains.

CONADI National Director Ignacio Malig Meza announced a budget increase of 461 million pesos intended to address existing waiting lists in the region, which is expected to benefit an additional 171 families.
