Progress being made by the Mexican government on the strategic Water for Colima initiative
In the western state of Colima, Mexico, the Mexican government has announced the launch of a significant water infrastructure initiative known as Agua para Colima. The project, aimed at improving water supply, is one of 17 strategic water projects promoted by the Federal Government to address water scarcity and reduce flood risks.
According to information provided by the National Water Commission (CONAGUA), the project seeks to join forces with local governments to build infrastructure that guarantees the human right to water, as enshrined in the National Agreement on the Human Right to Water and Sustainability. However, specific details about the timeline, funding amount, or quantified impact for this project are yet to be disclosed.
The Agua para Colima project involves the construction of an aqueduct that will complement the one located in Zacualpan. The aqueduct is intended to provide drinking water to over 238,000 residents, making a substantial difference in the region's water supply.
The project's projected investment is 1.78 billion Mexican pesos (MDP), with 360 million MDP allocated for the initiative in 2025. For those interested in up-to-date information about the schedule, investment, and water supply impact of the Agua para Colima project, it is recommended to consult official Mexican government sources such as the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT) or local Colima government websites, local news outlets or press releases related to infrastructure and water projects in Colima, or reports or announcements from CONAGUA.
