Istituto Oikos: Project Update

Oikos has recently provided an update that the project has, fortunately, not been delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic. In the villages of Ilkishbour and Ndedo, the hydrological, geophysical and pumping tests to implement the solar-powered solar pumps are now complete. Oikos and their local partner, RUWASA (Rural Water Sanitation Agency), have also met with the two communities to collaborate on the project with them. Oikos has reaffirmed that this close partnership in loco will undoubtedly ensure the sustainability of the water pumps following the completion of their installation. Another project update will be provided upon completion of the project in June 2021.
