Institute Water for Africa
Welcome to the blog of our NGO, which is passionately committed to sustainable water projects in Africa. Millions of people in Africa have no access to clean drinking water, which has a serious impact on health, education and quality of life.
Our mission is to improve access to clean water in affected communities through adapted technologies and sustainable solutions. In our articles, you can find out more about the progress of our projects, the challenges we face and how you can help us create a better future for the people of Africa.
After the well has been drilled and cased, the next step is the pumping test. This is used to determine the performance of the aquifer.
Today the drilling works for a well at Sikang Primary School started.
Today our partner GWAKO (GroundWater Abstraction in Kenya) has started the preparations for the construction of the well.
In Adyaka, just outside Lira, Chosen Generation Ministry runs a small sewing school for disadvantaged young women.
Once again we looked at two schools. Two politicians showed up uninvited, a congressman and a chief. This experience makes us think:
Today further school visits were on the agenda. Siaya Central Primary School (1600 students) already has a hand pump.
We were curious to see how our potential partner worked. During a visit to the school in Kodhiambo we could convince ourselves.
We got in contact with a drilling company in Kenya, which we want to get to know during a short visit. We hope that this will develop into a cooperation for further projects. First talks are promising.
The situation in the hospital in Adja has worsened again since our last visit. A hospital ward can no longer be used since the ceiling collapsed.
Around noon we drove to Adja, which is 4.5 hours away by car. Here two points had to be re-measured for the planned water supply.
