The project will work with the rhythm of the seasons in northern Mozambique:

January to April - shallow wells are tested to ensure ground water supply is adequate and not polluted. All preparation and planning will be completed (rain season).

May to November - all direct construction work will be completed (dry season) including partially or totally casing the well structure to ensure it is secure and fitting with standard hand pump that is easily maintained by communities.

January-December - the community will receive training in technical management & water education throughout the full year.

December - the project will be complete in advance of the rainy season.

Note: In 2006, Concern Universal Mozambique will provide a satellite photograph highlighting the communities where projects will be implemented. We will go back and visit these communities to see the water flowing, education programs in action and most importantly smiles on faces. Updates will be provided on the website.
