GS PoA Safe Water Programme by Water Mission in Tanzania
Gold Standard · GS12030 · Tanzania
About this project
The purpose of this PoA is to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the burning of non-renewable biomass for water treatment i.e., boiling. The programme is implemented by Water Mission, an organization registered in the USA. Water Mission is a Christian engineering non-profit that builds safe water, sanitation, and hygiene solutions in developing countries and disaster areas. The PoA will set-up community-based safe water supply and treatment technologies. Voluntary Project Activities (VPAs) registered under the PoA will be supported by the climate finance driven by the sale of Voluntary Emission Reductions (VERs).
