ABSTRACT Using semi-structured interviews and ethnographic investigation, this paper provides information about the status of water infrastructure in a region of Haiti where records of existing infrastructure are not otherwise accessible. This research explores perceptions of water quality, common infrastructure barriers to accessing water sources and community-led solutions to water insecurity. The results indicate that water resource provision frequently lacks sustainability and documentation, placing the burden of access and maintenance on local actors. Individual attempts to secure household water resources, such as piped water to the house or yard, also demonstrate a significant risk to the efficacy and durability of water infrastructure.

海地格雷西耶妇女在水利基础设施方面的生活体验

摘要 通过半结构化访谈和人种学调查,本文提供了有关海地地区供水基础设施状况的信息,该地区现有基础设施的记录无法以其他方式获得。这项研究探讨了对水质的看法、获取水源的常见基础设施障碍以及社区主导的水不安全解决方案。结果表明,水资源供应往往缺乏可持续性和文件记录,将获取和维护的负担置于当地参与者身上。个人试图确保家庭水资源的安全,例如通往房屋或院子的管道水,也表明对供水基础设施的有效性和耐用性存在重大风险。
