Global Water is an international, non-profit organization found in 1982. The organization believes that by building and providing safe and healthy sanitized water to rural villagers in developing countries that they can help build and create a healthier world. They believe that the lack of healthy and safe water is the cause of poor health, hunger, and poverty. Global Water's projects are to help, improve, and change the life style of the developing countries. Global Water uses to tool to create sustainable socioeconomic development in poor rural communities. Some of the projects are surface water supply and distribution systems, hand pump installations and repair, water treatment equipment, etc....
One of the projects that I really think is cool and useful to help the developing countries is the the use of sand filtration (Biosand) and SODIS system, which is a batch solar UV technology. These technology will help reduce the contamination in the water and reduce the inactivating disease-causing organisms. Global Water believes that by using these technologies to help the developing countries will reduce and sustain the health of those villagers or people who are in need of these systems to help them become healthy again.
