WaterAid | Pregnancy without water

Clean water and sanitation become even more important when you're pregnant.

Aurigo village in Ghana's Upper East region lacks plentiful water, making it a particularly challenging place to be pregnant.

When Ladi Cazone was pregnant she tried to collect water but often got dizzy and couldn't manage the walk with such a heavy load. Friends helped but sometimes she had to pay people to collect water for her.

Now it is a struggle to find enough water to keep her new baby clean.

WaterAid's partner Rural Aid is trying to help but faces challenges as groundwater resources are not present in any great amount in this area.
