During my time in Colombia I worked for WaterAid, an international NGO providing water hygiene and sanitation to people in Need. In Colombia WaterAid works mainly with local indigenous communities, the Wayuu. They live in small settlements scattered around the Guajira region in the north of colombia.

​

In La Guajira and especially in Wayuu communities the access to water is very poor and to sanitation non-existent, resulting in a high infant mortality rate due to diarrheal diseases. I documented WaterAids projects in the region, visiting communities and observing the work they are doing in the area.
