Greetings from Nicaragua. I saw your letter on the changemakers competition page and wanted to contact you on a subject your organization may be interested in.
As our proposal on changemakers state we aim to help local organizations help their countries meet the UN DMG by locally producing and marketing a low cost proven ceramic water filter . To date we work with NGO’s and private enterprises in 19 countries to carry this out. We realize that the filter solution is not the long term solution that we all want for our countries but in the mean time the filter has proven itself capable of meeting the goals of removing micro-biological contaminants from polluted water.
About a year ago the US embassy in Moldova was interested in financing a filter project they sent me a brochure of a ceramic brick and pottery factory in your country that probably had the required machinery already installed to produce the filters but I think the Embassy lost interest and we did not hear from them again.
In any case if your organization is interested in partnering with a local established pottery producer in your country we would be happy to assist you in starting up a production by either in-house training or responding to technical questions over the internet.
If you are interested in this possibility , please check out our Weapons of Mass Bacterial Destruction proposal on the changemakers competition listing, take a look at the photos included, check out the FILTER PAGE on our Web site (below) and if still interested please write me.
Peace

For sure, the US Embassy in Moldova has lost it’s interest in implementing this project.
We are very interested in partnering with a local established pottery producer in Republic of Moldova. Good luck!

Dear Ron Rivera,
thanks for the messages. I'll respond more detailed later.
Dear Botnaru,
I agree completely with your assessment on the importance of sanitation and the need to provide education and support for its improvement.
I hope you take time to read through some of the other "competitors" as I see many whose ideas may be of interest to you...
All the best,
Brian
Hello,
what other "competitors" do you mean?
Good luck!
