INCREASING ACCESS TO CLEAN AND SAFE WATER IN DUQAAQO TO COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE By Deegaan Bile Project with Duqaaqo Village Through a participatory community consultation process, the Duqaaqo community prioritized addressing the urgent water crisis impacting the district due to drought and inadequate water infrastructure. Duqaaqo is a village in the Mudug region of Somalia, about 80 kilometers from Galkayo. The community, with approximately 500 inhabitants mainly from host communities, depends largely on livestock. The planned water kiosk will support existing borehole structures and ensure the community receives an adequate supply of clean, safe water. Improved water access will enable the community to live peacefully while enhancing resilience against drought-related shocks. Climate change effects are clearly visible at the village level, with ongoing water shortages and other climate-induced challenges impacting Duqaaqo. The community has enthusiastically engaged in the Deegaan Bile matching grant project, which supplements funds raised by the community at a set ratio. Although the community lacks prior experience in initiating or co-financing projects, they have embraced this initiative as highly suitable. For the matching grant, Duqaaqo proposed the construction of a water kiosk with a matching ratio of 1:4. The community contribution is expected to be $5,000, with the project matching $15,000, making the total initial cost $20,000. The water kiosk was identified as a top priority through inclusive participatory community planning in Duqaaqo. The implementation is government-led and community-owned, involving representatives from diverse socioeconomic groups who collaboratively assessed the area’s resources, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to identify community priorities. Thank you for supporting improved access to clean and safe water in Duqaaqo through this community and Deegaan Bile co-funded water kiosk project, helping to mitigate climate change impacts.
