World Water Day: Cooperation is key
The theme of this year’s world water day is "cooperation." At first glance, cooperation might appear a somewhat passive sentiment; but, in the context of the global water challenge, meaningful change, and progress will only happen through cooperation, collaboration, and partnerships.

On World Water Day : A sustainable water solution for coffee processing in Ethiopia
TechnoServe is working with wet mill operators along the Kolla River to implement a low-cost, sustainable approach to water treatment – vetiver grass wetlands. The vetiver grass’s deep roots suck up the water, slowing down flow and infiltration into the soil. The remaining effluent, if any, is stored in a small pond at the bottom of the wetland to evaporate.
