With “Eka Ahasak Yata” - ‘Everyone Deserves Clean Water’ IMCD is looking to provide a solution to the growing rate of Chronic Kidney Disease of unknown etiology (CKDu) in Sri Lanka. Chronic Kidney Disease of unknown etiology (CKDu) has become a major health issue in Sri Lanka for the past two decades and it has caused more than 23,000 deaths within the period. The probable cause for CKDu is the consumption of water that is exposed to agrochemicals that contain heavy metals such as Arsenic and Cadmium. Drinking water sources such as tube wells and irrigation tanks in North Central Province and other affected Provinces are contaminated by these heavy metals.
Beside water being a primary requisite for survival, it is unfortunate that a considerable population of Sri Lanka doesn’t have access to clean drinking water even today, thus causing over 2,000 number of deaths per year. Recognizing the urgency for support, IMCD spearheaded this initiative ‘Everyone Deserves Clean Water’ to provide RO (Remote Osmosis) Plants to inflicted areas in Northern Central Province.
