Impact on Underrepresented Groups:
Our project is about access to sustainable energy tools and services in underserved communities, by working with youth and women as key beneficiaries; agents, stakeholders. We give youth and women access to tools for lighting their homes and for productive use whether in small businesses or for irrigation farming. Through our project, we empower youth and women to have access to tools that help them enhance their social economic lifestyle including; education, health and agriculture. School going youth are able to study at night. Women are able to take care of their households and babies. Youth and women are trained in basic solar usage, small business management skills and are made aware of developments that affect then such as climate change and changes in technologies. By being recruited as agents, we empower them to become make incomes through sales commission. Through provision of solar powered irrigation systems, we are helping communities become resilient against climate change effects like droughts and erratic rainfall patterns because, smallholders farmers are able to harvest twice a year. By using solar lighting systems, we are helping communities save on expensive options thereby using their money for other important needs.
