Registration!!

We have successfully registered for participation in the Mondialogo Engineering Awards 2009.

Our project title is: Improving Rural Health and Economic Conditions by Sustainable Water Management and Women Empowerment.

Also;we added a brief project description which is as follows:

Bhojpur is a little village of around 1000 people,72 km off the city of Jaipur,Rajasthan,India.The villagers rely solely on groundwater for their day to day needs.However the hardness,organic and most importantly the fluoride content are dangerously high rendering the water non potable.Consumption of this water poses a severe threat of fluorosis. Our objective is to ensure sustainable water management and alleviate the living standards of the villagers in general and the womenfolk in particular.We propose to achieve sustainable water management by: 1)Conventional rooftop rainwater harvesting
2)Recharge of groundwater
3)Treatment of contaminated well water and installation of filters.
Through a comprehensive business plan,we intend to generate a large spectrum of opportunities that suit the needs of the villagers ensuring eventual self-sufficiency of the village with women empowerment as the epicenter.
