@ Kpedzi

by - April 14, 2025


On sunny days like today, I imagine being near the Volta Lake, specifically at Kpedzi; a fishing community in the Asuogyaman District (pictures help this imaginative activity a lot!) :) Two months ago, on 14th February 2025, the Women in Engineering successfully handed over 10 bio-digester toilets to the Kpedzi community as part of our 25th Anniversary outreach initiative.



*Project Impact:* 10 household toilets constructed across 7 households in the community! Designed to use less water and provide an appropriate, sustainable sanitation solution that the community can manage and maintain independently.

*Why This Matters:* Uses a bio-digester system with Sato micro-flush toilets, requiring minimal water. Ensures hygiene, privacy, and dignity, especially for women and children. A sustainable alternative to traditional toilets, tailored for the local community’s needs.


One benefit of being part of professional bodies like the Ghana Institution of Engineering is that I get to learn from others in various fields on environmental matters such as sanitation, and I get to participate in meaningful community projects. Who are you collaborating with this week to make an impact where you are? Together, one group and community at a time, we can change narratives and brighten corners. Let's go!
