In the short-term Water for Humans will implement a four-part approach to engage an entire watershed: testing and selection, certification, demonstration and distribution. Within a single watershed, we will oversee water testing to determine the appropriate, short-term filtration system. Once a system is chosen, we will facilitate training for local entrepreneurs in water culture and certification under the International Water Quality Association (wqa.org) in water testing and in filtration-system installation, use, and maintenance. Such training /certification will position these individuals to be known as "water experts" within their watersheds.
These "experts" will conduct education and demonstration events to generate public awareness and demand. As a distributor, we will work with local manufacturers to ensure the supply of filtration systems. We will secure space for the certification classes and for micro-financiers to implement leasing plans that ensure product affordability. Eventually, this will provide Water for Humans with the capital to implement our long-term mission to engage communities in the restoration and preservation of their regional watersheds and water delivery infrastructures.
