Saware Dicha – Develop Saware
In Saware, a small village in southern Ethiopia, children walk long distances to reach school, following steep paths and facing dangerous animals along the way. And that is not the only challenge: children – especially girls – and women must also walk long distances to fetch drinking water, even though the water is not clean. Women cook on open three-stone fires, which produce heavy smoke inside the houses. The contaminated water and the smoke make children and women particularly sick. Once again, it is mostly children and women who must walk far to collect firewood for cooking.
With Saware Dicha, we aim to solve these problems step by step – in a sustainable way.
- We provide access to pure drinking water – within the village.
- We introduce improved cooking solutions that produce less smoke and require less firewood.
- We improve access to education by building a school inside the village and ensuring quality education – for both boys and girls
Because Kebede, the co-founder of Saware Dicha, is a true local, he knows how to collaborate effectively with the people of Saware. Together with our team’s professional expertise and our network in Ethiopia, we are making this vision a reality.
