A woman paddles on stagnant floodwaters in front of an abandoned church inside the Artex Compound in Malabon, Metro Manila. The village has been flooded by stagnant waters for several years. The inhabitants, who are mostly poor, have to use boats for their daily mode of transportation, and even visiting their neighbors has become a tedious effort. In order to get access to basic necessities like groceries, residents need transport to other parts of the city that are not flooded. One of the biggest problems for the residents living in the area is getting clean water for day-to-day life. Philippines.
