In Peru, the Water Futures Partnership has developed a comprehensive program to increase the sustainability of groundwater use in Lima following assessments of the socio-economic and hydrological risks facing the Rimac River Basin. Backus (SABMiller’s subsidiary) and GIZ are working to bring on board several companies to help fund this program with the municipalities. Elements will include: improving aquifer recharge, reducing the use of groundwater in watering the city’s green spaces, and introducing an aquifer monitoring committee.

Project Results

A number of in-depth studies have now been undertaken to provide significant insights into the basin and key water challenges. The partnership is now in the progress of engaging partners to mitigate the shared risks.
