Abstract
Edgar Roquer is the village teacher in Villa Alcira, Bolivia. The old school was flooded when the River Beni overflowed - the water levels almost reached the ceilings and it was a concern that the building would be contaminated by the dirty river water. Practical Action helped the community to build a new school.
