In beautiful #Rwanda excited to launch a new Mortenson Center: Global Engineering & Resilience and Virridy project with LifeStraw linking climate reparative finance to delivering climate resilient clean drinking water for schools. This is my 20th year working on water projects in #Rwanda!

Launched the Mortenson Center: Global Engineering & Resilience Virridy Amazi Meza schools water treatment program this week using LifeStraw and continued our research partnership with bridgestoprosperity - both efforts are water resilience adaptations to climate change in Rwanda.

Can climate finance save our water? While water is local, climate finance creates a global market for safe water. Virridy and Mortenson Center: Global Engineering & Resilience have innovated this concept globally and in the United States - time for scale! tinyurl.com/2p8mrast
