The project will start in September 2007 and end in December 2007. The project will provide water supply and sanitation facilities to about 613 families in Kandal, Trapek and Chrolong village, (Da, Chronok and Tragnel commune of Kompong Leng disrict). It will also improve sanitation facilities for local people, train communities to take responsibility for the facilities, and conduct health and hygiene awareness outreach. These can be done through environmental outreach programme by monk-trainers and project staff. The project will improve the quality of life and health of local people, who have suffered greatly from using water unfit in the area of Kampong Leng district by introducing people to use water filters. Improving access to clean water and sanitation are crucial in enabling local people to achieve sustainable economic families prosperity and effectively eradicate poverty in the villages, which it is the main objective of this project.
