Programme area 04
Energy poverty, water insecurity and environmental loss often sit inside the same household.
When firewood is scarce, women and girls walk farther. When a water source dries up, food production and school attendance suffer. When land is degraded, a farmer’s options narrow with every season.
BetterLife works on practical solutions that reduce those pressures while restoring the environment.
Uganda
We work on clean cooking in schools and refugee communities, including biogas, and on waste separation, plastic banks, recycling and reuse. More than 48 household biogas systems turn organic waste into cleaner cooking energy, and four school plastic banks help keep plastics out of the environment.
South Sudan
In South Sudan, rainfall is becoming harder to predict. BetterLife SPRING combines solar-powered irrigation with training in soil health, crop planning and water management, so farmers, refugees and displaced families can produce more reliably through dry periods.
Each figure belongs to the project or activity named with it. Figures are shown separately and should not be added together.
Fund a borehole, a household biogas system or a tree nursery, or bring engineering skills to keep systems running.
