A key goal of @CARE's response to the drought emergency in Somaliland is improving women's and girls' access to safe, affordable water and sanitation. With funding from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), @CARE has helped 14,000 people in 10 rural villages with water sources and filtration systems, including this unique solar pumping system in Higlo village. Wheelbarrows and donkey carts provided by CARE help women transport the water home. A bonus from the solar system is a mobile-phone charging station, operated by a woman as a small enterprise and helping foster communication links. Photo credits: 2011 Rick Perera/CARE
