2025 - The First set of wells in the CEED Ugandan Clean Water Project for the Reduction of GHG
Gold Standard · GS23322 · Uganda
About this project
This project seeks to reduce carbon emissions by providing new clean water sources to rural villages in Uganda where the only means of access to clean water is to collect it from surface ponds and streams and boiling it for safe use. This real case is for a set of 10 villages in the Bunyoro-Kitara area of Western Uganda that will be provided with a new borehole for actual GHG emission reduction through the provision of clean water.
