Village women teach others about cooking and water pasteurization with solar power.

Adventures in Health, Education & Agricultural Development, Inc/ AHEAD has worked more than 13 years to train government workers, women and youth who then teach others to build solar Cookits and pasteurize water using solar energy. Cookits provide many advantages over traditional wood fire cooking, and also create economic opportunities for the people who train others and sell the kits.

A black pot filled with water is placed on the solar reflector. Pasteurizing water requires an inexpensive thermometer that indicates when water has reached 65 degrees centigrade – a temperature hot enough to kill bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms.

Working with AHEAD, more than 11,000 people have already received training in these two countries. Young people have also demonstrated to local authorities the need to chlorinate their wells and water tanks.

Without water, life is impossible. Water is a precious resource in most of Africa, but much of it is contaminated, therefore--it can still bring death.
