Description :
Before the project, Zoya Pashayeva, for the last 40 years, with buckets at the hands had to pass at least one kilometre to reach the water source in the mountain and brought water home. As she said, "the ICRC rescued her from 40-year suffering".
The ICRC repaired and upgraded the village's water-supply system. The project consisted of rehabilitation of 1.25 km pipeline, as well as installation of two water reservoirs and two catchments to gather spring water. Now, the water from several springs in the mountain fed by gravity into the reservoirs inside the village.
