Since 2006, World Vision Armenia implemented various projects on drinking and irrigation water pipeline installation and rehabilitation throughout Armenia. As a result, 149 pipelines were put in commission by Aparan, Alaverdi, Stepanavan, Sisian, Kapan, Talin, Vardenis and Tavoush Area Development Programmes of World Vision Armenia. 

For the first time, after long years of waterless existence and dreadful winters, thousands of households in rural communities gained access to quality and uninterrupted drinking water supply. Although the pipelines do not always reach directly the households, for many locals it is only a couple of minutes walk to get to the water-taps. This made the life of inhabitants substantially easy.
