Implementation and operation of water kiosks in Burkina Faso - VPA 2
Gold Standard · GS12081 · Burkina Faso
About this project
The project activities promote the installation and operation of solar powered water kiosks with different water purification systems in Burkina Faso to provide safe drinking water and displace water boiling using non-renewable biomass and/ or fossil-fuel as means of water purification. This will lead to a reduction of CO2 emissions. Moreover, the project actvities will reduce adverse health effects related to waterborne diseases associated with unsafe water usage and related to harmful gases during combustion of firewood for boiling water.
