A volunteer group providing safe drinking water in small rural communities in Nicaragua, and a school to teach campesinos the principles of small-scale drinking water project design. The Albany-Berkeley group supports the Nicaraguan team which includes a village organizer, two hygiene and health workers, a watershed conservation specialist, a field director, a classroom teacher (the only non-Nicaraguan), and a few students / technicians. There will be a guided trip to Nicaraguan sites of Agua Para La Vida projects in Spring 2002.
