What is the current water and sanitation situation in Nicaragua?
Of the 2.4 million people living in rural Nicaragua only 27% have access to piped water and only 34% have improved sanitation. Our initial scanning suggests that the inhabitants of the Autonomous Regions of the Atlantic Coast are seriously underserved. In the Autonomous Region South (RAAS) there are local authorities where only 14% of the rural population has access to drinking water and only 21% have access to sanitation.
