Ethiopia is Africa's top producer of coffee and the home of 'Arabica' coffee, with 15 million people relying on coffee production for their livelihood. Despite this, Ethiopia is still one of the poorest countries in the world where 62 million people lack access to clean water and diseases caused by drinking dirty water are the leading cause of death for children under 5 years old.
Project Waterfall began working in Ethiopia in 2014, and since then has invested in 10 projects and reached over 14,000 people with a sustainable source of clean water and sanitation.
We will be continuing our commitment to Ethiopia with a new four year project in partnership with WaterAid that will reach over 10,000 people in the Jabi Tehnan district by 2022.
