01:47

Residents in rural areas near Kyrgyzstan's capital Bishkek have long relied on artesian springs and streams for their water needs. To help change that, national geographer Salamat Kulombekovich Alamanov partnered with Chinese institutions to introduce water purification systems, which include 11 units covering 7 regions. 20,000 people are benefitting from these systems. And China's Luban Workshop are helping to train local talent in water resource management, to work towards the goal of greater access to drinking water.
