Field Work Update: Margaret Morales in Buenos Aires, Argentina

Margaret Morales is conducting fieldwork in Villa Lamadrid, a small community in Greater Buenos Aires, Argentina. Though the community is on the municipal water supply system, they are part of the over 3.5million people in the metropolitan area living without access to municipal sanitation and wastewater management services. The lack of wastewater management services to the area has led to severe groundwater contamination and frequent flooding. With an eye toward gender differentiated impacts, Margaret is exploring with the community how the water management systems impact daily life and relationships.
