The Challenge
Over 400 million people across Africa do not have access to clean water. They remain trapped in poverty and disease, without education or economic opportunities.
We construct a large solar water pumping system that provides clean water for an entire village. It’s reliable, eco-friendly and creates lasting change for up to 4,000 people.
Thanks to our UN-award-winning Remote Monitoring system, our donors have a satellite view of the village and track live, the amount of water pumped or solar produced at any given time. In addition, real-time alerts enable our team to resolve any issues quickly, ensuring project sustainability.
iA has over 100 full-time employees, mainly engineers, and works with 50 local contractors across Africa. At each water project, 10 community members are hired and paid by the contractor who will ensure the sustainability of the project following its completion.
Credibility
Innovation: Africa has a Special Consultative Status at the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and has received multiple awards, including the “Innovation Award” from the UN.
