WASH

“Women and girls travel long distances every day to fetch water, risking their well-being while doing so." These are the words of Yenenesh Abebe, a student of the Water Supply and Sanitation Training Program at Woliso Polytechnic College. She and her classmates acknowledge the role Growth through Nutrition played in the college's teaching-learning process and its effect on their service to the community.

This Success Story explains how Kidist Tadesse, a graduate from Hawassa Poly Technic College in Water Treatment, is the only water quality expert in the Awada Boricha Water Supply Project. However, following an intervention by Growth Through Nutrition, students are now excited about joining the Water Technology Department, given the improvements in essential lab materials and teaching competencies.
