Sunny Forsyth from Abundant Water is passionate about teaching people without access to clean water to make a filter using materials that are easily accessible (clay and coffee grounds). Sunny spends much of his time in Lao but returns to Australia regularly to share what he is doing and to seek ongoing support from organisations and individuals alike.
Abundant Water have recently produced this video which I think is well worth a look as it presents the approach they use to engaging people in small communities. What I like about it is that Sunny and his team have thought through the economic, cultural and social aspects of a local persons life and developed a product that can be made within that framework. I hope you enjoy watching Sunny and maybe think about making a contribution. If you are off to Lao anytime soon, Abundant Water now offer tours of their compound so you can experience first hand the power of sharing knowledge to improve people’s lives.
