Challenge
As part of the local government’s initiative to transform villages in Maharashtra to align with the U.N’s Sustainable Development Goals, The Village Social Transformation Foundation sought to bring access to clean, drought-resistant drinking water to school children.
Students at Zilla Parishad Primary School Kolpimpri lacked access to safe drinking water, relying instead on poor-quality water from hand pumps. What’s more, with the school located in a region prone to severe drought, they needed a resilient solution that did depend on existing surface water supplies or extract already scarce water resources.
Proyecto FUENTE
En colaboración con SOURCE® y la Village Social Transformation Foundation, Global Power Source coordinó la instalación de 6 hidropaneles con voluntarios de la aldea. Instalados en el techo y conectados a un dispensador en el aula, la escuela ahora proporciona a los estudiantes agua potable limpia y confiable a pesar de la sequía.
