About this organization
Mission
Friendly Water for the World's mission is to expand global access to low-cost clean water technologies and information about health and sanitation through knowledge-sharing, training, applied research, community-building, peacemaking, and efforts at sustainability. We empower communities abroad to take care of their own clean water needs, even as we empower people here to make a real difference. Our vision is of healthy, self-sustaining, empowered, peaceful communities both here and abroad, sharing our knowledge with each other, with life and hope restored through clean water.
About
BioSand Filter Construction - Community Training: we offer community training programs in the construction of BioSand Water Filters. Each training is geared towards training 20-35 individuals in the production and safe use of BioSandd filters. The trainings are generally 5-6 days in length and covers both filter construction, as well as health and sanitation training. Along with the hands on construction training, FWFW provides multiple reusable steel molds (for filter construction) as well as tools and materials needed to produce filters for all the training participants. These are provided at no cost to the participants for their continued use. In 2018 we offered trainings in India, Democratic Republic of Congo, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda, Burundi, and Ethiopia. In 2017 we expanded our community training program to pilots projects in Sierra Leone and Liberia. We offer our training to communities that may be be suffering discrimination or severe health or economic hardships. We have been working with displaced minority groups in Congo (Batwa Pygmies), India (displaced women) Tanzania (people with albinism) and Uganda (with victims of gender based violence) and throughout east in communities impacted by HIV/Aids. In 2018 FWFW conducted over 30 community trainings.
