DAILY STRUGGLE<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]Rosailsa Dominguez Barrio gathers water out of the family cistern for bathing. The lack of fresh water on the island is a constant battle for the locals. \u00a0Rainwater is gathered from rooftops to carry them through the wet season but rare deliveries from the government during the six-month-long dry season can make life on the island unpleasant.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”section” type=”grid” text_align=”left” padding_top=”25″ padding_bottom=”0″][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_single_image image=”1626″ border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]Islanders rely upon delivery of food from the mainland. \u00a0The crew of La Carinosa bring fresh plantains, avocados, mangos along with live pigs to the islands in the region. \u00a0Their journey aboard the wooden sailboat takes 10 days to complete the roundtrip from Cordoba on the mainland, making the cost of food higher for residents.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”section” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” padding_bottom=”0″][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_single_image image=”1622″ alignment=”center” border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”section” type=”grid” text_align=”left” padding_top=”10″ padding_bottom=”0″][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text]Resources and space are limited for students on the island of Islote. Young students attend classes in the morning while older students are taught in the afternoon. The education system can only offer classes for students up to seventh grade. Families that can afford it, often send their teenagers to live with family in Cartagena or Tol\u00fa so they can continue their education.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”section” type=”grid” text_align=”left” padding_top=”15″ padding_bottom=”0″][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_single_image image=”1624″ border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]Shop owner Juan Guillermo Berrick Escobar works by candlelight until the island\u2019s generator starts up for the evening.
