The crucial first step to better health
Water is essential for life. Citizens of wealthier countries take clean water for granted. In poor countries, many people suffer from chronic health problems because they don't have enough water. The job of collecting water takes time from school, family, work, or other priorities.
This hands-on guide explains various sources of water, and practical methods for purifying it. We have adapted and translated it from the manual published by the highly-respected Hesperian Foundation.
