This webinar series aims to provide you with a range of innovative solutions to address our problems on the ground. For each series, we will only feature one innovative solution to ensure effective learning exchange.
For the 2nd of the series, we bring you the innovative technology that will allow us to provide water in hard-to-reach territories (granite, hills, deserts), capable to put multiple boreholes on limited areas without charging existing known aquifers. The technology will also allow us to provide high-quality water, ready to drink, with a stable flow rate, that is accessible for long-term needs.
Please join us on Thursday, 19 August 2021, 10.00 CEST or 15.00 GMT+7/ Jakarta, by registering through: https://bit.ly/3fE5aiN
