Project to provide access to safe water... Explanation: If "acompañada" is correct and not an error for "acompañado", it must refer to the San Rafael Abajo Community, but if you insert "Project" after "Community", "supported" it will inevitably be taken to refer to the project. Delaying "Project" until the very end, as in Lydianette's suggestion, just doesn't work. So I think the only way to handle it is to insert "to provide" between "Project" and "Access". However, if "acompañada" is an error for "acompañado", referring to "Proyecto", eskí's solution is right. I think "served" might be better than "supported" for "acompañada", but that's a different question. |
