“In the next decade, the probability that the most important aquifer in the country will collapse is high. The amount of water that is being extracted is leading to the fact that the water from this aquifer cannot be used due to salinization or collapse”.

Eduardo Zegarra, senior researcher at GRADE, participated in the III Colloquium on Business and Human Rights, organized by the Pro Human Rights Association (APRODEH). Eduardo presented key data on agro-exports and overexploitation of the Ica aquifer.
