UNICEF/2018. Phases 1 & 2 Final report on Exploration Phase  to Unicef de Madagascar December 2017- Pilot Exploration and Production Project Alternative groundwater sources. This pilot project aims to implement modern geophysical exploration techniques, used today in the mining sector, to try to highlight alternative groundwater sources in an area where known groundwater sources are considered to be unproductive and mineralized (salty). These alternative sources highlighted, surveys will be conducted to assess the quantities of water that can be mobilized and the quality of the resource, before possible exploitation Extracting this water will provide equitable access to safe water for households to be more resilient to future droughts and natural disasters.
