The Great Man-Made River

The Great Man-Made River is a large-scale engineering project in Libya that transports freshwater from underground aquifers in the Sahara Desert to supply water to cities and agriculture. It involves a network of pipelines and reservoirs that move millions of liters of water daily, helping address water shortages in a dry climate. The project aims to improve living conditions, support farming, and reduce dependence on limited surface water sources. It is one of the world's largest irrigation projects, showcasing advanced engineering to turn underground water into a vital resource for Libyan communities.
