Water
and health are the focus of ALIVE, a
project joining efforts with thousands of Egyptians
to improve quality of life through water, sanitation,
environmental education and micro-finance interventions.
ALIVE partners with community development associations
(CDAs)intermediary organizations, and a micro-finance
institution to enhance
their capacity to help people bring clean water into
their homes and install environmentally sound sewage
and solid waste management systems.
ALIVE increases
community
understanding and
knowledge
of health and
environmental
issues.
ALIVE empowers
the
community to
participate in
critical
decision-making and
service
provision.
Adult literacy and life
skills training
strengthen
the decision-making
ability of 3000 girls
over the age of 14.
Teachers are
trained to become
environmentally aware
and transfer this to
their students.
