The Cooperation Fund for Water and Sanitation in 2021

The economic and social consequences provoked by the global coronavirus pandemic continued throughout 2021, with a significant impact on Latin America and the Caribbean. Despite this, the Cooperation Fund for Water and Sanitation pushed ahead with active programmes -that had been slowed down by the health situation-, and began planning and implementing projects that were approved in 2020 to address the pandemic.
