💧 In Kwedizinga, Tanzania, we have initiated a project that will change lives: in addition to ensuring access to clean water, we train the community in aquifer management, well digging and maintenance, and water distribution. This effort seeks to improve health, reduce disease, and free women from long hours of water collection, allowing them to contribute to other areas of community life. 🌱👩👧👦 With safe access to water, 3,890 people-including 1,433 children and 2,060 women-will be able to meet their basic needs and improve their quality of life. https://lnkd.in/ddZWfEjj

How can we improve access to basic health in rural areas of Sub Sahara Africa? 🤔 We partnered with Healthy Entrepreneurs to support Community Health Workers in becoming Community Health Entrepreneurs, where they receive training and are able to sell quality health products at a lower price. This does not only increase the sustainability of the program, but also increases the reach to the most isolated communities in Uganda.
