Clean water for a remote community in MadagascarAs of October 2019, a community in Madagascar obtains drinking water by the sea using only the sun by Dutch sustainable off-grid desalination technology. Madagascar is one of the least developed nations in the world, and the 3000 inhabitants of the village of Efoetsy, located on the dry south-western coast, have been struggling with increasing water scarcity over the past years due to climate change.Thanks to the work of the Dutch Elemental Water Foundation,, who teamed up with the Global Shapers Amsterdam, local NGO Transmad and tech-company Elemental Water Makers, they now have daily access to 15,000 liters of affordable clean drinking water year-round using the naturally available resources of the sea and sun: https://elementalwaterfoundation.com/efoetsy/
