DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

Dominican Republic Project Overview

Villa Verde, Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic team has been partnered with the community of Villa Verde in the DR since 2020. Since then, we have traveled three times and completed several implementations to help the community. 

 

Highest Priorities: 

  • Accessible road systems, even during the rainy season

    • Walking paths & footbridges

    • Motorcycle and small vehicle crossings

    • Paved roads with less potholes

  • Water drainage systems to divert water  to the gully

 

Villa Verde Builds: 

  • Ditches and culverts

  • Low water crossings

  • Footbridges 

  • Underground pipe infrastructure

 

Future Plans: 

  • Monitoring & Evaluation of Villa Verde implementations

  • Establishing a relationship with a new community in Santo Domingo Oeste

  • Planning for an assessment trip in Summer of 2027
