Water Wheel: One of the key problems faced by women in rural India is the long trek to fetch water that has both physical and socio-economic repercussions. The Water Project highlighted this problem and took up the task of providing an innovative solution to this problem. “Indian women can take up to six trips a day to gather and transport water. These walks in rural regions can average ten miles a day, carrying up to fifteen liters every trip. The women load jars or buckets on their heads to carry water. The heat increases their exhaustion, and they’re removed from being able to make an income, better care for their children, or in a younger girl’s circumstance, be able to get a proper education.”
Designed by Wello, an American social venture company to facilitate the transportation of water in a more efficient and hygienic manner. It consists of a round 50-litre container made of plastic that makes it possible to roll down water instead of physically carrying it from the water source.
