About this project

Kiasi Energies aims to rehabilitate 900 boreholes in Sofala Province, Mozambique, with a commitment to their maintenance over the next decade. This initiative yields numerous advantages that span across social welfare, economic prosperity, and environmental sustainability. Improving access to clean water will enhance the overall health of local communities. Simultaneously, addressing the demand for safe water mitigates the anthropogenic factors driving deforestation. The reduction in the need for firewood for water purification processes will alleviate the pressure on forests, leading to a decline in deforestation rates. Furthermore, by alleviating the burden of wood collection, a responsibility typically borne by women and girls, Kiasi is actively addressing issues of gender equality. Our team will conduct WASH trainings, promoting hygiene and sanitation practices among borehole users and within schools. Special attention will be given to young girls, as our activities aim to heighten awareness to the importance of menstrual hygiene. Through these multifaceted efforts, Kiasi Energies aspires to create a positive and lasting impact on the communities.
