Millions of people around the globe lack a safe and reliable supply of drinking water 

​Since challenges faced by developing communities are best understood by those who live them daily, we strongly believe that the best way to encourage change is to build capacity at a local level. Many remarkable organizations exist to facilitate development projects, but few educational opportunities focused on the fundamentals of water and sanitation sciences are available to those with limited experience. ​We aim to fill this gap via programs targeted to empower the community members with the tools to improve their quality of life.

From detecting microplastics in water and measuring conductivity in water sources to conducting adsorption experiments and designing low-cost equipment for water quality monitoring, Jhon and Sebastián completed their research internship at Universidad EIA and Universidad de los Andes in Colombia.
