New World International is partnering with Dominic to develop proposals that would see Flexi Biogas devices installed in our clinics to power refrigerators, used to store volatile vaccinations. Due to the remoteness of some clinics, power failures (typically gas bottles running out) consequently leave communities without vaccinations for several months. Since these communities would be able to produce Flexi Biogas independently, this would no longer be a problem.
The first installment/pilot has been at Ilkilorit high school, where ICROSS have just opened a new health clinic serving the surrounding Maasai communities. The teachers at the school now use their Biogas up to 5 times a day to cook and make tea and are delighted with how easy it is to use. They no longer have any need for charcoal or their old charcoal Jiko (charcoal burning stove) and the schoolchildren are happy to bring the required bucket of dung each day for their teachers.

2018-09-22: Image of a hydroelectric power station was built in Itezhi Tezhi. The project was funded by the African Development Bank Group.
ICROSS, with funding from the Global Fund, has a home based care programme where 170 volunteers care for terminally ill aids patients. ICROSS is in charge of the training of the community health workers (CHVs) and distribution of prophylaxis and nutritional supplements among other things. We quickly realised the stigma and discrimination our volunteers met, both external and internal. After close dialogue with a number of volunteers, a comprehensive stigma and discrimination workshop was tailored. The workshop was incorporated into a refresher course for our CHVs on home based care.

The final presentation date for projects of an EECS 481 course in the Bob and Betty Beyster Building atrium on December 11, 2013.
EECS 481 Students in EECS Professor David Chesney's course have been designing systems to make it easier for Grace Simon to communicate, play, or be more independent at school or home.
Simon was diagnosed with cerebal palsy at six months old. While Grace doesn't have the muscle control to speak, extensively sign, or walk, she has a very capable mind that can read and communicate by signaling 'yes' or 'no.'

Grace Simon, tests a student group's software, Draw Free, on the final presentation date for projects of an EECS 481 course in the Bob and Betty Beyster Building atrium on December 11, 2013.
Draw Free is an art application that operates with input from a joystick and a mechanical button that enables Grace to have tools she needs to create her own works of art.
