Isla Urbana — Rainwater Harvesting for Water-Scarce Homes

Founded in 2009, Isla Urbana designs and installs rainwater harvesting systems in underserved communities across Mexico, from Mexico City's peri-urban edges to rural Oaxaca. The systems capture and filter rainwater to give families a dependable supply where piped water is intermittent or absent. The organization pairs installations with education and community training to sustain long-term water resilience.
