This is one of the most serious problems affecting rural Cambodians and contributes to a range of health and social problems, including stunted growth; lower than acceptable weight to height ratios in adults and low life expectancy at birth.&nbsp;&nbsp;Consuming poor-quality drinking water increases the risk of contracting water-borne diseases that can shorten mental and physical stamina. This impacts learning and working capacities in children and adults.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; color: black;"></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;"><strong><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: #339966;">Since 2008, the Temple Garden Foundation has been working in partnership with communities in rural Cambodia to promote sustainable development for those living in poverty.
