Diálogo Américas features launch of the USAID Upper Lempa Watershed Project

Diálogo Américas published a story announcing the launch of the USAID Upper Lempa Watershed Project implemented by Winrock International.

“The United States government, through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), launched the Upper Lempa Watershed Project, which will benefit 180,000 people in El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras.”

“The initiative will be implemented in coordination with the U.S. organization Winrock International and the regional organization Trifinio Plan of the Central American Integration System (SICA) with a $13 million investment for a five-year duration, SICA said in a statement.

“This is a great project because these are important resources for cooperation,” Liseth Hernández, trinational executive secretary of the Trifinio Plan, told Diálogo on November 8. “They are connected with information management, increasing the availability of data and analysis of water quality for decision-making.”
