Water Brigades at Drexel University

Water Brigade volunteers implement water systems to prevent communicable illnesses in communities through 7 day Water Brigades in Honduras or Ghana. Student volunteers can either join an existing Water Brigades chapter on their campus or create their own chapter and recruit other volunteers. Our in-country team members work with water technicians and community leaders to design large scale water systems for the entire community. Once the water system is designed, volunteers work side-by-side with community members to implement the water system and provide education and training to proliferate knowledge about proper water use, and proper sanitation and hygiene practices.

Water Brigades at Emory University

Global Brigades is the world’s largest student-led health and sustainable development organization with varied membership that spans North American and European universities. Through Global Brigades, student and professional volunteers empower communities in developing countries with sustainable solutions that improve quality of life and environment, while respecting local culture. Since 2004, more than 30,000 volunteers from over 800 university clubs have traveled to provide health and economic development solutions to more than 600,000 beneficiaries in Honduras, Panama, Nicaragua, and Ghana. Water Brigades' mission is to empower communities to access sufficient, clean water through infrastructural development, water treatment, community leader training, and education. Water Brigades Volunteers assist in implementing clean water systems to prevent water related illnesses in communities with limited access to clean water. One of the fundamental roadblocks to community development is lack of clean water. With a sufficient quantity of properly treated water, community members can cut off the connection between water and illness and ultimately live healthier, more productive lives. Volunteers work side-by-side with community members as well as with our in-country project technicians in all aspects of the water system's construction, while learning about its design, how it works, and its long-term sustainability.
