Lessons from Bolivia - EWB-UMR Chapter

Lessons from Bolivia - EWB-UMR Chapter

Friday, Feb 7, 2014

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBOeeRPJ4XI This past summer the University of Missouri-Rolla’s chapter of Engineers Without Borders traveled to two destinations in Bolivia to apply their engineering skills to local problems. The first destination was a small boarding school in the Amazon. There the problem consisted of finding a clean source of water. The second location was in Inca Katurapi, a small village in the Andes where there had never been latrines. UMR students and faculty developed composting latrines for the community in an attempt to help reduce the infant mortality rate.

Such technology is usually characterized as being small scale, energy efficient, environmentally sound, and controlled by the local community. It must be simple enough to be maintained by the people using it. Furthermore, it must match the user and the need in complexity and scale and must be designed to foster self-reliance, cooperation, and responsibility (adapted from B.
