We are a group of students, Students without Borders. Our specific team is Dawa, which is a river in Ethiopia. Our project started with one question. How can we address the basic needs of a community that lacks infrastructure? We identified basic human needs, and set out to find a community that didn't have one. After we did some research, we realized that one human need that an abundance of people didn't have access to, was water. Then, we looked at what areas of the world needed clean water the most and narrowed down our search to Ethiopia.
