Deadline: March 25, 2024
Submit your projects for the Elisabeth & Amelie Fund – Access to Water – 2024. The Elisabeth and Amélie Fund supports initiatives of Belgian organizations active in Africa, Latin America and Asia, which work with a local partner to improve access to water in a sustainable way. The Elisabeth & Amélie Fund’s 2024 call for projects will focus on school sanitation projects with a hygiene education component.
Setting up and maintaining sanitation and water access systems in schools is essential to attracting and keeping more pupils at school, especially girls. The projects submitted under this call for proposals will aim to improve schooling conditions by focusing on sanitation and access to water. This will go hand in hand with raising awareness among teachers, pupils and their parents about water, hygiene and the environment.
The following elements should be included in each project:
- Latrines: basic sanitation, preferably by installing ecological systems;
- Hand hygiene: access to water for hand washing or innovative alternative solutions;
- Ecological toilet waste recovery/purification;
- Raising awareness about water, hygiene and the environment and raising awareness of the management of common property (latrines, etc.) to ensure its long-term upkeep.
