Etid la Liberya: Dlo pwòp pou yon peyi tout antye

With the help of Sawyer filters, Liberia will be the first developing country with clean water, border to border, in every household by December of 2020. Sawyer filters will bring clean water to the last 20% of rural Liberia that everyone said was impossible to reach.

THE STUDY: Independent, U.S.-based scientific research teams from CalvinCollege are collecting and processing data from GIS (geographic informationsystem) software. Currently, they are tracking the implementation of 100,000 Sawyer filters placed throughout Liberia. The results will be submitted for peer review and scientific publication in the American Journal of TropicalMedicine and Hygiene.
