In this project, student teams from Universidad San Francisco de Quito and Delft University of Technology worked together to provide safe drinking water in Ecuador. We used M-100 chlorinators from the company WaterStep, donated by Water Ambassadors Canada, to chlorinate water in schools and communities. The journey involved testing water quality, setting up the chlorination systems, and learning how to work in different communities. The key to success was testing water properly and setting up the system carefully. Learnings about working with local communities and organizations are included as well as the importance to understand each community’s needs to make a real difference.
