The University is launching an initiative to provide reliable access to drinking water for communities in rural Africa using its smart handpump technology. Press Release – 03 June 2019 – Around 275 million people in Africa don’t have reliable access to drinking water. Many in rural areas depend on handpumps to access groundwater, but at any given time one in four of those handpumps is broken. Mechanics are often unaware of failures, leaving pumps out of action for weeks or even months, which can drive people to use other distant, dirty or expensive water sources.
