At the beginning of the year, LONGi teamed up with PV partner Senergia AB to support an important project in Mozambique that was initiated by Project Vita, an NGO focused on empowering people to improve their own lives.
In the village of Linga Linga, LONGi and partners had the clear goal to provide clean water for their health clinic - a maternity clinic. Clean water is essential for the health of mothers and babies, and the lack of running water is a major problem in many parts of Africa. Water for handwashing, sterilization, or laundry - the bare minimum of hygiene - is not available. At the same time, electricity is a scarce resource, yet the basis for changing hygiene standards.
Running water is essential for giving birth. This project already has and will continue to save human lives. 38 babies have been born at the clinic since the installation, in using clean water.
