- Water Resource Development
Indigenized water treatment method using Renewable Energy resources:
Contaminated drinking water source in a village in Sudan
Indigenous water test kit and water purifier: Water testing and treatment processes can be used as tools to teach the reality of Fall and principle of redemption. Indigenization of techniques essential to human survival is a very effective way to build capacity of local people and to teach the cultural-mandate of the Creation.
There are sample opportunities to develop environment-friendly methods to overcome challenges for rural livelihood by utilizing renewable natural resources in creation. Above is a realistic and practical example Biblical stewardship to redeem His creation. The contaminated water shown in the picture above can be easily treated by this method.
- Renewable Energy Resource Development
Micro-hydro-electric generator: Use of old alternator for rural electrification. This is a good example of teaching the biblical value of recycling.
- Transportation
Basic Utility Vehicle (BUV): Starting from a small project that can be managed locally, the community gains the ability to solve their own problems, and this type of project can contribute to minimize the dependency problems.
- Additional projects in progress
Various water purification techniques, Indigenous water drilling rig development, Indigenous hand pump,Incinerator, Cook stove …
