Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible

3. Salud y bienestar

100 people

treated per day in mobile health clinics, providing valuable access to healthcare for communities

6. Agua limpia y saneamiento

68,445 check dams

built to sustainably improve water sources

13. Acción por el clima

610,000 tonnes of CO2e

reduced on average annually, by a decreased reliance on fossil fuels.

15. Vida de ecosistemas terrestres

9,000 hectares of eucalyptus forest

planted, improving soil quality and biodiversity in nearby forests

La solución

New infrastructure now enables the five cement manufacturing plants involved in this project to use alternative fuels and biomass residue, including rice husks, wood-processing residues, and other agricultural waste. As a result, they have been able to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels such as the toxic mix of coal and lignite they previously used in their kilns.

El impacto

This project funds a range of social and environmental programs including health clinics to service the neighbouring communities, over 6,500 check dams for upstream forest conservation, school scholarships, mobile health clinics and the development of small-scale local industries. Farmers also now profit from a supplementary income and additional jobs have been created thanks to the project’s efficient supply chains and manufacturing processes for biomass fuels.
