Water supply with solar energy for kindergarden/school in Mayo-Kebbi, Tchad

,

Akwada has been coordinating development projects and training courses for 8 years and has been running a kindergarten since 2017. The School is enabling underprivileged young people an apprenticeship for different skills. Kindergarten and school are currently equipped only with a simple well with hand pump. The missing water connection makes it particularly difficult to keep the toilets clean, therefore, the plan is to install a water supply using solar energy. The practical work of installing a water pump will be part of the ‘chantier-école’ (training in building trades). The plumbers and electrics apprentices as well as solar panel installers will learn hands-on installation experience. Running water will improve considerably the health situation for all trainees since hygiene will become much easier.
