The Well in Action (TWA) is a non-political and not-for-profit Ethiopian Charity Organization. It started working in Ethiopia in 2005. TWA provides practical and structured support to local communities, enabling them to achieve sustainable development in all aspects of their lives: the provision of fresh-water to communities and schools; improved hygiene and sanitation in homes and public spaces; and more productive farming practices using ground water potential (irrigation agriculture) that can boost and sustain local livelihoods.
