Lack of safe water endangers the health of Baghdad's most deprived children

Report

For thousands of Iraqis living in crudely built cabins in the Baghdad slums of Sab' Qsoor, a safe drink of water used to be almost impossible to find. The area has only a few pipes to supply municipal water, and many of them are broken or contaminated.

As a result, most families had no alternative to stagnant streams, puddles or uncovered wells to quench their thirst. That changed almost four years ago, but now the people of Sab' Qsoor face a new water crisis.
