LIFE Program

WATERisLIFE expanded its LIFE Program in Dique da Vila Gilda, the largest informal stilt settlement in Brazil, home to over 26,000 people and facing extreme water vulnerability and poor sanitation conditions. In partnership with Instituto Arte no Dique and with support from Chubb, 400 ultrafiltration bucket filters were distributed to 400 households, reaching approximately 1,600 people—primarily children. These household filters enabled families to access clean drinking water at home, significantly improving their health and quality of life.
