INUMA Safe Water Project
Gold Standard · GS11873 · Rwanda
About this project
The purpose of the Program of Activities is to enhance access to safe drinking water to the community through implementation of community level water treatment and water supply technology options (INUMA™ safe water mini-grids) thereby reducing emission of greenhouse gases resulting from avoidance of burning of non-renewable woody biomass for boiling unsafe water to make it safe for consumption. The programme is likely to reduce the drudgery of women mostly involved in collection of firewood by avoiding use of firewood for boiling of water and thereby reducing the total quantum of wood to be collected for household usage. Avoidance of water boiling will also reduce the exposure of women to indoor air pollution. The programme of activities is to be implemented across Rwanda.
