Grant Description

On December 13, 2018, China officially donated 20 mobile toilets worth 460,000 NAD to Khomas Province in Namibia. This project was funded by the Chinese Embassy, and built for free by unspecified Chinese business enterprises. This donation is in response to the recent hepititis-E outbreak in Namibia which is spread through contaminated water.

These new, more sanitary toilets will replace the bucket and pit toilets common in Namibia and combat the spread of disease. The construction start date and implementing firm are unknown.
