Ecuadoran water fund transforms consumers into conservationists
by Dimitri Selibas on 4 May 2021
The Regional Water Fund of Southern Ecuador (FORAGUA) operates in 14 municipalities, serving 500,000 residents, and has restored 1,500 hectares (3,700 acres) of land and put an additional 337,000 hectares (833,000 acres) under conservation.
By 2030, the fund aims to work in 39 municipalities, serving 1 million people and conserving 600,000 hectares (1.48 million acres) of land.
A pilot project to incentivize landowners to rewild their properties and take up alternative livelihoods shows that where landowners could earn 50 times more per hectare cultivating guanabana, a local fruit, than raising cattle.
Municipal residents pay on average $1 per month to FORAGUA for their water consumption, with 90% of funds raised going to conservation projects. ....

And the withdrawals are allowing salt water to move in, threatening the main source of drinking water for a growing population of more than half a million.
Marcelle has been a state legislator since 2016, and her first piece of legislation directly tackled the city’s imminent water crisis.
