Global Water Challenges
Medium Community Well
More than 2 billion people lack access to safely managed drinking water. Muntada Aid has spent years providing water solutions to communities facing water-related challenges — and one of them is building community water wells.
Each medium community water well serves up to 500 people daily, providing clean water for drinking, cooking, washing and livestock. We construct these wells in areas where the availability of freshwater is limited.

A story of dignity
Daughter of the Desert – Barakatu
“Water should not be a privilege. It is a human right.”
This is the story of Barakatu and how access to clean water is changing her life in the quiet corner of the Sahara.
Barakatu is 18 and lives with her parents in the village of Tanka in Niger. Due to the family's socio-economic situation, Barakatu had to leave education after finishing her primary school.

How we assign a water well?
- Step 1
Need Assessment
Our team on the ground performs a need assessment before commissioning a water well in a specific area.
- Step 2
Soil and Water testing
Before we start the construction process, we will carry out specific water tests (depending on the country) to check the quality and safety of the water. We also collaborate with local authorities for various permissions and other legal permits needed for construction during this period.
- Step 3
Construction
The construction starts immediately after acquiring the relevant permissions from the local authorities and when suitable weather conditions permit.
- Step 4
Handover to the local community
Once the water well is constructed and ready to use safely, we hand it over to the local community.
- Step 5
Feedback
Once the water well is handed to the local population, we will share a personalised feedback report with photos of the well and beneficiaries.
