The intervention has significantly alleviated the burden of the IP community, eliminating the need for long-distance walks to fetch water. This improvement not only enhances their quality of life but also increases their productivity by allowing them to allocate time to more economically productive activities.
The domestic water facility is intended for various household purposes, including cleaning, bathing, laundry, toileting, and backyard gardening, all aimed at enhancing IP’s hygiene and way of life.
The ceremonial turnover signifies the culmination of collaborative efforts aimed at improving the well-being and livelihoods of the community.
Through sustainable solutions and community partnerships, DOST Mimaropa and the local government of San Jose continue to make meaningful strides towards addressing water poverty and empowering marginalized communities in Romblon. (GATS/PIA MIMAROPA/DOST)
