Solving Africa’s Water Crisis with IoT

IoT Leaders

You can find stories of the positive impacts of enhanced connectivity anywhere.

The work of eWATERservices — installing safe, affordable and accessible water systems in communities across sub-Saharan Africa — is a great example of IoT’s power to meaningfully shape people’s lives.

eWATERservices Chief Operations Officer James Kay talks about the immense challenges some people face every day to get what many typically take for granted: clean water. James dives into:

• Why the traditional non-governmental organization (NGO) model of providing water to communities in need doesn’t work
• How eWATERservices overcame hardware design issues to bring clean, safe water to sub-Saharan Africa
• The biggest obstacle to scaling eWATERservices and how the carbon credit model could uproot it

Listen to this episode to learn about how Eseye partnered with eWATERservices to give sub-Saharan African villages water they can rely on and why connectivity can often be the difference between life and death.
