L’électricité est un besoin de base et une condition préalable
au développement. Il y a pléthore de solutions techniques et de l’argent en quantité. Alors, pourquoi 1,6 milliard de personnes vivent-elles encore sans électricité ? Voici cinq hypothèses et trois solutions à ce problème.
De l'eau potable grâce à un filtre de type «sachet de thé»
L’université de Stellenbosch, en Afrique du Sud, a annoncé que ses chercheurs avaient mis au point un nouveau système de fi ltrage de l’eau. Elle faisait allusion à un fi ltre jetable de haute technologie qui ressemble à un sachet de thé et rend potable l’eau très polluée. Il s’agit d’un fi ltre à eau facile d’emploi
et respectueux de l’environnement qui s’installe dans le goulot d’une bouteille. Selon l’université, cette invention doit permettre aux communautés vulnérables, par exemple celles qui vivent à proximité de cours d’eau pollués, d’accéder facilement à l’eau potable.
Guinea pigs: a guarantee of food security and a source of income in South Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo
The years of war have led to a rapid decline in the nutritional status of people in the Democratic Republic of Congo. To cover their protein requirements, the rural population in the Kivu region in the east of the country have turned to raising guinea pigs. For many families these rodents are nowadays not just a vital element of their food security, but also an essential source of income.
Green genetic engineering in Africa
Although the commercial cultivation of genetically modified (GM) plants in Africa has been relatively modest until now, a number of research and development projects in this field are already operating in several African countries. These involve breeding drought-tolerant, pest-resistant or nutrient-enriched maize, or cassava varieties with greater disease and pest resistance.
