 Everyone has the right to clean water, but around the world water insecurity remains a fact of life for so many. This is true of the parent-scat indigenous community in the arid Bajira region of Colombia. They have to walk for getting the brackish water and really they struggle when they wind pumping system fails. They also have stomach diseases all the time due to the quality of water they drink. That's why a team of Colombian engineers developed a solar-powered water desalinator. It's a device that was developed along with the community to allow for greater acceptance of the technology. We are engineers, so we're thinking in the technology, but we often forget the human side of the project. This technology is a winner of a design challenge put together by Engineering for Change and Siemens and the team's hope is that its impact is felt far and wide. There are a lot of communities with similar conditions and we really hope to further develop the technology and to just spread it around the world.
