Water access and infrastructure in Peru and Argentina

Overview

In Peru, community-led and corporate-supported initiatives are expanding water infrastructure in the Tambogrande region. Through the El Algarrobo Project, a collaboration between local authorities, community members, and Compañía de Minas Buenaventura, over 250 families in the Locuto center are set to receive direct water access via the expansion of the Los Montero-Córdova sector network. This effort includes the provision of high-pressure motor pumps and HDPE hosing.

In Argentina, residents of the Zampa neighborhood in Resistencia continue to struggle with water access. Although a court ruling has issued an injunction to guarantee supply, local families remain uncertain due to potential appeals from provincial authorities or Sameep. Additionally, residents have reported that recent household surveys were incomplete, which may impact the accuracy of future water distribution planning.
