Our Bolivia Technical Team is beginning to review interview data to asses water demand and discuss alternative line and storage locations.


Our Bolivia Cultural Team is sorting through photos from the trip to print and send them to the communities. They also created a document with interview data for the technical team.


Our Biogas Team is working on filling out paperwork, getting vaccines, and organizing their next trip to Uganda.


Our New Member Design Team is beginning the EPICS Design Process and researching ideas for a way for our water route to reach the more secluded areas of Colquechata.
