This union is reflected in the materials, the contents of which are based on information, lessons and experiences that have been acquired in cooperation projects in developing countries, and in this particular case, the work that Zabalketa does in Nigeria on water and the purification of water with the Nigerian organization "Educational Cooperation Society".
