World Vision Challenge: Low-Cost Chlorine Monitoring for Rural Piped Water Systems

Major Organizations: Operating Grant Program in Canada

Deadline: 4-Feb-21

The World Vision, supported by SeaFreight Labs is seeking low-cost, easily maintainable technologies and/or devices to monitor free residual chlorine in piped water distribution systems located in rural areas of sub-Saharan Africa.

A solution to this Challenge would not only bring life-changing advancement to the target areas but also positively impact tens to hundreds of millions of people worldwide.

The overarching objective this Challenge, therefore, is the development of a low-cost approach to automating the measurement of free residual chlorine levels for small scale rural water systems in resource-constrained settings. Such a solution will help bring one of the most impactful public health interventions in recorded history—chlorinated drinking water—to vulnerable households in poor, underserved communities throughout the world.
