Fighting poor hygienic conditions in Durgapur with clean wells, energy access and good sanitation

  • Status

    Project completed

  • Location India

A total of 47 families (250 people) live in Mol-Danga without access to a drainage system, adequate water or street lighting. They're suffering from malnutrition and the lack of educational and health centres.

This project developed a comprehensive programme including the creation of one low cost sanitation unit for each family, four bore wells for clean water supply, the installation of 10 solar lights, a hall for children primary education and equipment for dish making from sal leaf.

These efforts will improve the hygienic conditions of the local community.
