Actividades t�cnicas/cient�ficasAnalysis of water samples to establish the values of the water quality parameters of the Motagua River, especially heavy metals. Completed
Indique cuáles han sido los resultados/logros obtenidos en el marco de las actividades realizadas: 
The results showed that the levels of the water parameters were well above the acceptable percentages and in the case of heavy metals, they also exceeded the permissible limits.The results, after having been analyzed by the scientific team, motivated ADA2 to proceed to share them with the Ministry of Public Health and Social Assistance, the governing body for water and sanitation in Guatemala and which is in charge of defending the health of children. population.
