About this project
This project will consist of installing solar water supply systems and community tap stands in Malawi, providing safe water through capturing energy from the sun to pump clean water from the aquifer. The project will ensure that households consume less firewood during the process of water purification and as a result there shall be a reduction of carbon dioxide from the combustion process.
