Italy & UNDP Pledge €2 Million for Reservoir Restoration in Libya

July 21, 2023

On Thursday, the Italian Embassy in Libya, along with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), pledged funding estimated at €2 million euros, with a view to aid the Man-Made River Authority in restoring Ajdabiya’s vital reservoir.

The commitment follows an incident that led to the rupture of the water pipeline. The damage was caused by the theft of air valves from the region’s copper cables, which were part of the cathodic protection system.

The resulting explosion not only caused widespread flooding of homes and farmland, but also cut off the water supply to cities situated between Ajdabiya and Benghazi.

This collaborative effort from Italy and UNDP exemplifies their dedication to supporting the recovery of Libya’s essential infrastructure, thereby assisting the local communities affected by these infrastructural crises.

The Ajdabiya reservoir, located in Libya, is a crucial part of the country’s infrastructure, serving as a key water source for a large number of towns and cities. Over the years, the reservoir has suffered damage due to various factors, including lack of maintenance, conflict-related destruction, and criminal activities, which have affected its capacity to provide water reliably.

This restoration project is part of the larger effort to rebuild Libya’s infrastructure, and improve the living conditions of its people. It is an example of international collaboration aimed at aiding a country in need, by directly addressing one of its most pressing issues – water security.
