We’re Growing and Looking for Two Great People! [] Caminos de Agua

If you’re reading this, you’re probably already familiar with Caminos de Agua and our mission to improve human health and community well-being through adequate and affordable access to clean water. You probably also know that, for over the last 11 years, we have been battling the growing water crisis in our region of Mexico that is causing severe water scarcity and naturally-occuring arsenic and fluoride contamination in the water supplies of our communities. Our talented and committed staff collaborates with community leaders, grassroot organizations, leading universities, governments, foundations, and other NGOs from throughout Mexico and around the world. Together, we’ve made significant achievements regionally as well as notable impact nationally and internationally.

In order to continue to do more, we must grow, and we’re seeking to add two important new positions. If you, or someone you know, is qualified and would like the opportunity to make a real difference, we would love to talk more. Both positions will be based in San Miguel de Allende, an amazing place to live and work.

Caminos de Agua is a community focused, data-driven, and science-oriented non-governmental organization (NGO) based in San Miguel de Allende. We drive to empower local at-risk communities to obtain adequate supplies of safe and healthy drinking water. Today, Caminos de Agua is a team of ten full- and part-time employees, plus several graduate-level engineering and public interest interns from Engineers Without Borders UK and other universities and institutions. We’re a mix of expat residents and Mexicans, technologists and community organizers, researchers and educators, united by our concern for public health and welfare. Caminos de Agua is organized as a registered nonprofit in both the U.S. and Mexico. At Caminos de Agua, we believe that access to safe, healthy drinking water should be a fundamental human right. We help communities at risk confront challenges of water quality and scarcity through:

1. Water monitoring 2. Education 3. Community-led solutions 4. Research and development 5. Activism
