Background
Wecha elementary school is located in the Njombe region, in the southwest of the country. It has 184 pupils of which 91 are girls. More than 25% of primary schools in Tanzania lack any system that can provide safe drinking water to their pupils, as well as the possibility to teach them good hygiene habits.
Objective
The project aims to supply safe drinking water to this elementary school by piping from the nearby water point to a tank that is installed on a tower that is built at a certain height. Once the tank is installed, taps are installed at strategic points decided between the school management and the contractor. The water reaches the taps thanks to the force of gravity. In addition to the installation, awareness and sensitization courses on the correct use of water and hygiene are carried out.
Milestones
As of today, 184 people have access to drinking water through this project.
