Toilets
Sagarmatha National Park, Nepal
 
The Everest Sanitation Alliance, an unofficial partnership between AWBS, Do Good Sh*t, and local champion Tenzing Sherpa, has designed a composting toilet facility for Phortse, Nepal. Construction of this prototype is nearly complete and we are looking forward to evaluating the building and the waste management system for potential use at several dozen other sites along the Everest Base Camp Trek.
Mt Everest Biogas Project
Base Camp of Mt. Everest, Nepal
 
Every year, more than 13 tons of human solid waste is carried down from Mt. Everest and is being dumped in open, unlined pits. AWB is partnering with Engineers Without Borders to design a digester to treat the waste and solve this environmental problem.
Child Academy
Tembisa Township, South Africa
 
AWB's help was requested to develop a design concept to build a security wall to surround the school to keep students safe from random violence. The school also sought landscape support to create opportunities for food cultivation.
