Dear Donors:
We have hired an architect and begun the design work for the project. The initial design, which has already been approved by the Kabiro Human Development Project (KHDP) board of directors, includes an open-air, roofed meeting/eating facility and an office on the first floor, above the ablution block and kitchen. The project will include a rainwater harvesting system. Existing pit latrines on the KHDP site will be connected to the biodigester so that the latrines can stay cleaner longer and the biodigester can begin to generate methane faster (a certain amont of human waste has to accumulate before the methane can start to flow). We also intend to connect the biodigester to an existing sewer line so that exhausting the remaining waste will be quick, easy and inexpensive.
Next steps include a meeting with the current users of the facilities at KHDP to get their feedback on the design, then a meeting with the broader community in the informal settlement of Kawangware to inform them about the project.
