The project supported by Stichting Grenzeloos Salland and Aqua for All aims to provide a safe drinking water in easier accsess through our simple Nazava Water Filter technology to families at Nyuh Kuning sub-village.
More than 3.4 million people die each year from water, sanitation, and hygiene-related causes. At least 99% of these deaths are in the developing world. In Indonesia itself, 150.000 children die yearly and 18% of those died because of diarrhea from the lack access of safe drinking water. Many of these deaths could be prevented by better access to safe, safe drinking water.
To distribute Nazava water filters system to households in Nyuh Kuning as wellas surrounding areas in order to get the Nazava water filter known in thecommunity and beyond.
To educate people on the importance of consuming safe drinking water and tointroduce an alternative means of getting drinkable water in a more economical,convenient, and healthy way.
Therefore, Kopernik distributed:
About 330 households, and 1655 people (avg. households = 5)
• Around 282 families live in the area.
•The 2nd winner of The Cleanest Village in Indonesia in the year of 2012 and the1st place of The Cleanest and Healthiest village in Bali in the year of 2013 and willsoon represent Bali at the National level
.• Is the location of Yayasan Bumi Sehat, which the founder Mrs. Robin Limreceived the CNN's Hero of the Year for 2011 to provide a free health service topregnant mothers and children under five years old.
• The village is one of a very few villages in Bali that apply waste managementsystem and separate the organic and non-organic garbage for further process.
All families in Banjar Nyuh Kuning will receive a voucher that they can redeem for a 13.5 Litre Nazava Water Filter valued at Rp. 225,000. The vouchers can be redeemed at Warung Koperasi Banjar Nyuh Kuning from 11-23 February 2013.

More than 250,000 people have been affected by the flood crisis in Jakarta since Thursday 17 January 2013. Many flood victims are still facing hunger, dysentery and poor sanitation. Access to clean drinking water is very limited in the relief centers.
Water filters are a simple technology that will make clean drinking water available in the relief centers, essential for the health and survival of people displaced by the floods.
At least 250,000 people have been affected by the flood crisis in Jakarta, and more than 18,000 people had yet to return to their homes as of Saturday 19 January. Some people have even taken shelter in bus stops. To respond this state of emergency, relief centers have been set up to take care of the flood victims. However, distribution of aid to relief centers has been uneven. Many flood victims are still facing hunger, dysentery and poor sanitation. Access to clean drinking water is very limited in the relief centers.

To address this problem, Kopernik, with the help of local partners in the field, will distribute Nazava water filters to the relief centers in Jakarta. The Nazava water filters will enable the flood victims to have access to clean drinking water. These filters can purify dirty water to clean drinking water without using electricity, and produce 12 litres of clean water every hour.
1000
The water filters will be distributed to flood victims in Muara Gembong and Penjaringan relief centers, with each center receiving five Nazava XL water filters.
The filters will be distributed by our partners on the ground in Jakarta: Laika Care, Yayasan Gugah Nurani Indonesia and Aksi Cepat Tanggap.

Schools are also responsible for plastic waste. By providing water filters at schools, students will have access to safe and clean drinking water and be able to fill their own recyclable water bottles at school. This project also aims to save families money on water and to significantly reduce the amount of plastic waste in schools.
The local water sources in Payangan Village are not safe to drink, so people must buy bottled water. This is expensive and adds to the problem of waste management. Over 30 million plastic bottles are used in Bali every month and most of these end up as land fill or are burned.
By providing 15 water filters at schools, students will have access to safe and clean drinking water and be able to fill their own recyclable water bottles at school. We are also aiming to save families money on water and to significantly reduce the amount of plastic waste in schools.
2600 people
Students and teachers will benefit from this project. Teachers in Payangan are paid on average 1.500.000 IDR/month (approximately US $150). While students receive free education in elementary and middle school, they still have to pay for books, uniforms and transport. High school in Payangan is not government subsidized so families typically pay 120,000 – 200,000 IDR/month to put their children through school. Farming and tourism are the main sources of income in Payangan.
SMK Payangan Green Club will distribute the technology to schools throughout Payangan Village.
These schools are: 1. SD N 1 Kerta 2. SD N 3 Kerta (Penyabangan) 3. SD N 1 Puhu di Penginyahan 4. SD N 2 Puhu di Puhu 5. SD N 3 Puhu di Ponggang 6. SD N 4 Puhu di Semaon 7. SD N 1 Buahan di Majangan 8. SD N 5 Melinggih di Payangan Desa 9. SD N 4 Melinggih 10. SD N 2 Melinggih di Br. Sema 11. SD N 1 Milko di Br. Bayad 12. SD N 3 Melinggin di Tiba Kauh 13.

Student members of the Green Club at SMK Payangan will lead an education campaign about safe drinking water and waste management, to be taught in all schools throughout Payangan. Clean Up Bali and Bali Recycling will also support the waste management project.
Yayasan Bali Sahaja will compensate students who lead the campaign for their expenses.
Provide 300 impoverished children from Bali's remote mountain hamlet homes that have no access to clean drinking water with a sustainable source of safe water.
Impoverished children from remote mountain hamlet homes live without access to safe drinking water.
Water filters will be provided to six area schools by local partner East Bali Poverty Project (EBPP). Regular access to safe drinking water at school will improve the health and body function of the children during their most developmental years. Water filters will prevent dehydration and have the potential to empower children to educate their families and neighbors on the importance of clean and safe drinking water. The simplicity and affordability of the water filter technology could lead to adoption in area homes.
300
Beneficiaries for this project are the school children from the six remote Desa Ban hamlets of Bunga, Cegi, Pengalusan, Manikaji, Jatituhu and Darmaji. Approximately 75 percent of families still live in one-room bamboo huts and 50 percent do not have toilets or bathrooms.
EBPP field staff and local tutors for the six schools will distribute the technology in conjunction with an awareness program.
This proposal is fully funded by T-Point Campaign.

Provide vulnerable women and children in Western Kenya with rollable Q Drum containers to ease the burden of water transportation. This is phase three of our ongoing efforts. To date we've distributed 142 Q Drums, benefitting more than 700 people. Let's keep the momentum going!
In Kenya, women and children are generally charged with the responsibility of providing water for the household. This typically entails large amounts of water being carried on heads of women and children over long distances, causing lifelong spinal or neck injuries. In addition to the physical toll, children often attend school late or miss classes to undertake this responsibility which compromises their education and the education levels of the country.
The Q Drum rollable water container is a safer and faster way to transport water. It will drastically reduce injuries caused by carrying water on the head and will allow children to get to school on time by speeding up the transportation.
90 families and over 500 individuals
The beneficiaries will be poor and marginalized women in Matungu district, many of whom are widowed due to HIV/AIDS, and who will be selected on the basis of their vulnerability and distance from a water source.
The targeted women will be put in groups of five to 10. The groups will then rent the Q Drum to community women and children at a subsidized cost as a way of generating income for their livelihoods. Ten percent of the money raised through the rental system will be returned to Yaya Education Trust in order to ensure sustainability of the project.

As an organization we shall help to contribute:
• 91,000 KES (1,300 USD) towards the purchase cost of 20 Q Drums
• Provide and replace ropes for pulling
• Help to train the beneficiaries and create awareness on the Q Drum and its usage.
We shall deposit our contribution to the Kopernik organization through an agreed upon means once the Kopernik is ready to purchase the Q Drums.
This is phase two of a project facilitating green technology adoption and creating new business opportunities for poor women in East Nusa Tenggara and West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia that does not require them to take on risk or debt.
This project is also fundraising on Kopernik's Japanese website.
Indonesian Census Data (2007) indicates that 13.7 percent of Indonesian households are headed by women – that’s over 6 million households. However, according to Indonesian law, the head of a household must be a man, thus a woman who finds herself as the head of her family faces a whole range of discriminatory policies and practices. For example, without the formal recognition as a head of household a woman cannot access the nation’s pro-poor poverty alleviation programs, such as free health care, cash transfers and rice subsidies. Women heads of household cannot even get a birth certificate for their children.
The households headed by women are generally poor, aged between 20 to 60 years old. Almost 40 percent are illiterate and have never gone to school. These women typically have up to six dependents and their income is often as low as less than USD $1per day. These women heads of household are typically widows, women who have been abandoned by their husbands, or survivors of violence.
The link between the loss of a male head of household and poverty is well known. Not only are families instantly plunged into poverty, but poverty becomes the fate of future generations: children are often pulled from school by mothers unable to pay school fees and in need of children to work for additional family income.
Working with an existing network of women's groups across Indonesia (comprising of women who are heads of households), Kopernik will provide women with training and a range of green, life-improving technology (such as biomass fuel-efficient cook-stoves, solar lights and water purifiers) on consignment. The women will become technology agents and sell the products to their communities. Once they make a sale, they earn a commission, repay Kopernik for the cost of the products and replenish their inventory. Kopernik will then reinvest these funds and purchase more technology to benefit more women’s groups in other locations.
The women will also receive training in a simple maintenance and care program that will enable them to provide ongoing support and product maintenance.
The Kopernik technology agent consignment and maintenance program will provide much needed regular income for women without them having to take on debt or risk. It will also bring other significant yet less tangible benefits such as newfound confidence and respect within their communities.
This program has successfully been implemented in West Nusa Tenggara, and it is now being expanded to East Nusa Tenggara. The funds raised here will go towards providing water filters for these tech agents, or perhaps more accurately, agents of change.
Initially, 250 women. But access to clean water filters will not only provide much-needed regular income to women sales agents, but also make water safer for members of their community. Therefore, your gift will have exponential impact.
Poor women who are the heads of households in West Nusa Tenggara and East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. These women have the responsibility as bread winner, household manager, and decision maker, including:

Through a consignment and maintenance program, PEKKA will be contributing fully to this campaign with repayments over time. The women in PEKKA groups will become technology agents and sell the products to their communities. Once they make a sale, they earn a commission, repay Kopernik for the cost of the products and replenish their inventory. Kopernik will then reinvest these funds and purchase more technology to benefit more groups in other locations.
This project aims to improve the lives of people in Bojonegoro with a special focus on women.
The level of women’s empowerment is low in Bojonegoro, yet women hold the key to sustainable development, because they spend more of their extra income than men on things that benefit families, such as education, nutrition, health care and sanitation. Women’s labor force participation and earnings are associated with reduced poverty and faster growth.
Ten women will be selected and trained to participate in Kopernik's technology agent program. These women technology agents will receive 300 units of water filter on consignment to sell in their communities and earn commission from sales. Their efforts not only will benefit many other households with life-changing technology, but will empower themselves to become able and skilled business women and contribute to their household income.
10 women tech agents will receive training that builds entrepreneurship skills. They will be receiving 300 water filter units on consignment, and once all units have been sold, potentially 1200 people will benefit from clean drinking water (300 households x average of 4 people per household).
The target population are women of Bojonegoro living below the poverty line.

Bojonegoro is located in East Java by a river named Bengawan Solo (the longest river in Java), which runs from the south of Java island and is used as a border mark between East and Central Java. Most people are farmers or foresters. This place has a great reputation for providing high quality of teak wood.
Bojonegoro consists of 27 sub-districts and 430 villages. According to the latest statistic report, the total population is 1,425,074 (Bojonegoro Statistic, 2010); 12% of that population is considered as ‘poor’. After few surveys, we decided to focus the program in 7 villages; one (out of 24) village in Kalitidu sub-district and 6 others villages (out of 23) in Ngasem sub-district. These seven villages are the closest to the ExxonMobil exploration. Of 19,384 households in Ngasem, 6,576 of are classified as poor.
This is a special project that facilitates green technology adoption and creates new business opportunities for poor women in East Nusa Tenggara of Indonesia that do not require them to take on risk or debt.

For example, without the formal recognition as a head of household she cannot access the nation’s pro-poor poverty alleviation programs, such as free health care, cash transfers and rice subsidies. She can’t even get a birth certificate for her child.
The households headed by women are generally poor. The women are typically between 20 to 60 years old. Almost 40 percent are illiterate and have never gone to school. They have up to six dependents and their income is often as low as less than one US dollar per day. They are typically widows or women who have been abandoned by their husbands. Many are survivors of violence.
The link between the loss of a male head of household and poverty is well known and is economically devastating to already poor families. Not only are families instantly plunged into poverty, but poverty becomes the fate of future generations, with children being pulled from their schools by mothers unable to pay school fees, and needing them to work for family survival.
Working with an existing network of women's groups across Indonesia (comprising of women who are heads of households), Kopernik will provide women with training and a range of green, life-improving technology (such as bio mass fuel-efficient cook-stoves, solar lights and water purifiers) on consignment.

It will also bring other significant yet less tangible benefits – newfound confidence in themselves and respect within their communities, as they become agents of innovative technology and agents of change.
So far this special program has been implemented in the province of West Nusa Tenggara, and it is now being expanded to East Nusa Tenggara.

Aid villages devastated by floods in Orissa, India by sending provisions of water purifying technology
Exceptionally heavy monsoon rains in September resulted in large scale devastating floods in Orissa, affecting more than 3 million people and forcing approximately 150,000 people to evacuate their homes. Most families in the flood damaged areas have very limited access to clean water as regular water sources have been destroyed by overflowing muddy water and people do not have facilities to boil water.
The water purification device will provide clean water for daily use to households who have essentially lost everything including their homes.
500 households
500 affected households from 11 villages in Astaranga and Gop Block, Puri District, Orissa have been selected by OSVSWA based on observational assessment of flood damage. Most of the households in this area are classified as ‘below poverty line’ (BPL) and almost 80% are Scheduled Caste.
Given the dire humanitarian situation, this will be a special project in which the technology will be distributed for free. However, the project will be monitored just like other projects in that data will be collected on the impact as well as user feedback.
This project has been partially funded by Daiwa Securities.
