For the protection of the Lempa River: Tri-national Association promotes dialogue for its rescue

On Friday, November 15, the Tri-national Border Community of the Lempa River held a successful breakfast conference in Los Cebollines, San Salvador, El Salvador, with the aim of presenting the position of the Tri-national Network for the Rescue of the Lempa River to the Lempa River Conservation and Restoration Program, derived from the debt conversion between El Salvador and the United States for water conservation.

During the event, an urgent call was made to the media, government representatives, and key actors to promote a special law that guarantees the protection, conservation, and restoration of the Lempa River, one of the main sources of water in the region. This effort seeks to ensure compliance with the environmental commitments of the Salvadoran State and promote inclusive trinational governance.

We are especially grateful to the media outlets that were present at the conference and that, through their coverage, amplified the message about the importance of protecting the Lempa River. Their commitment to reporting is key to raising awareness and inspiring action.

Let's join the change!

The Lempa River needs our commitment. We continue to work together for a sustainable future.
