africa access water.

Africa Access Water (AfAW) is a non-profit organization that provides and delivers solar powered water systems in Africa. AfAW affirms that water is at the center of socio-economic development and advocates that water is a key resource for production, food security, and poverty eradication. The water programs implemented by AfAW create clean drinking water, improve agricultural irrigation systems, better hygiene + sanitation, and support community wealth creation. Africa Access Water continues to research, advocate, and lobby for better national, regional, and global environmental policies.

Currently, I sit as an AfAW Board Member and serve as their Global Networks & Partnerships Advisor. I liaise with executive staff to advise on partner relations as well as potential funding opportunities. I also help to create AfAW education training programs in-country for vulnerable populations. My international advisory role requires general support of AfAW sustainable initiatives including environment, education, and economic development.
