Initial distribution of water filters renewed on a larger scale

Thanks to the Karito programme, 4 ORISA® purifiers were donated to our partner Brasimpex as part of a roll-out of 5 units in the Quilombo Guarima community.

To support this project, public players provided training in good hygiene practices and the importance of drinking clean water. The purifiers have enabled the beneficiary community to have access to clean water, thereby reducing the incidence of water-borne diseases.

Follow-up visits were carried out to assess how well the beneficiaries were adapting to using the ORISA® water purifiers, and following a positive assessment, a further 25 units were deployed in this Brazilian community.

The ORISA® water filter in a medical caravan

At the beginning of January 2025, the Amoddou association travelled to Benin as part of its 3rd medical caravan.

In 2022, the association had already benefited from an ORISA® water filter during its medical caravan to Guinea.

ORISA® was used to provide healthy water to those receiving treatment, but also to give the Amoddou team access to clean water, free from viruses and bacteria.
