Community members learn to perform microbiology tests on well water and then teach others about the importance of water safety

Without water, life is impossible. Water is a precious resource in most of Africa, but much of it is contaminated, therefore-- it can still bring death. Over 1 billion people worldwide do not have access to safe water, creating major global health implications. The World Health Report estimates that water-related diseases account for one child’s death every 15 seconds.

SOLAR COOKERS INTERNATIONAL (SCI) provides effective training and low-cost alternatives to wood-fire cooking. Their products also enable women to be trained to solar pasteurize water for drinking, and how to determine if water is safe.

The Safe Water Package includes:

1 Cookit solar cooker
1 pot indicator
1 water storage container
1 reusable wax-based water pasteurization (WAPI)

Trainers are equipped with a Portable Microbiology Laboratory containing materials for 25 water tests: E. coli bacteria tests, pipettes, collection bags and a battery-operated long-wave UV lamp. SCI provides these tools and life-saving information for more than 5,000 people each year.
