- Needs Assessment:
- Conduct surveys and focus groups in target rural communities to understand current water challenges and purification needs.
- Identify existing water sources, quality issues, and community preferences for water purification methods.
- Technology Development:
- Research and develop innovative water purification technologies, such as solar-powered filters, bio-sand filters, and low-cost membrane systems.
- Pilot test these technologies in selected communities to assess their effectiveness, feasibility, and user acceptance.
- Implementation and Deployment:
- Deploy the selected water purification technologies in rural communities, ensuring that they meet local needs and conditions.
- Provide training and support to local communities on the operation and maintenance of the purification systems.
- Capacity Building:
- Develop training programs for community members on water purification techniques, system maintenance, and health education.
- Establish local maintenance teams to ensure ongoing support and troubleshooting for the purification systems.
- Monitoring and Evaluation:
- Implement a monitoring framework to track the performance of the purification systems and their impact on water quality and health.
- Collect feedback from community members to identify any issues and make necessary adjustments.
- Knowledge Dissemination:
- Document and share the outcomes and best practices of the project through reports, case studies, and community workshops.
- Engage with other communities and stakeholders to promote the adoption of successful purification technologies and methods.
