The Dream

The Dream documents the impact of a development project in West Kordofan, Sudan, that established 11 solar-powered water stations to provide clean drinking water to rural communities. Reaching 11 villages and surrounding areas, the project serves more than 20,000 people, including communities facing severe water shortages. It also supports access to water for livestock, helping sustain livelihoods in a region where people depend heavily on pastoralism. Funded by the African Development Bank and implemented through the Islamic Development Bank’s assistance, the project reflects the vital role of sustainable water infrastructure in improving living conditions and strengthening community resilience.
