Water tanks from stabilised soil blocks

There are inspiring examples that can guide the future. For example, Makerere University’s Faculty of Appropriate Technology operates a rainwater harvesting project that uses water tanks made out of stabilised soil blocks. The university has transferred the technology to a number of organisations in Uganda. In one district, for example, over 700 water tanks have been built for individual homes.^[1]
