About this project

The objectives of this project are: (i) Schools from rural communities have access to safe water and (ii) CO2 Emissions are avoided. This project will address critical access to safe water, whilst contributing to pollution reduction through the benefits of carbon financing. The water purification systems will reduce both the use of and demand for firewood and other fuels used to boil drinking water, leading to reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. The project activities managed by Virridy will distribute, install and service low GHG emitting water purification systems at point-of-use (POU) to provide safe drinking water (SDW) for institutional application at schools in approximately five hundred (500) schools countrywide. The project technology will be installed at the POU within facilities of the schools (mostly, primary and secondary schools, other educational institutions can be included)
