WCW Region Sponsorship

In Western Canada, WFP began to focus fundraising efforts on Bolivia in 2011. Bolivia is one of the poorest and least developed countries in Latin America, and limited access to clean drinking water and sanitation is one contributing factor of poverty, especially in rural areas, where access to safe drinking water is as low as 50% and sanitation coverage, as low as 15%.
WFP began working in Bolivia in 1997, and has forged partnerships with key local players such as the local private sector, local governments and NGOs, to better support community water supply and sanitation development. Together with local partners, WFP Bolivia is also implementing water, sanitation and hygiene education programs throughout five regions.
