Water Supply Upper East Region Ghana (O&M Phase) The Upper East Region is located in the North Eastern part of Ghana. Bordering Burkina Faso and Togo. The major cities are Bolgatanga, Bongo and Navrongo. Serious restraints in the drinking water supply are identified throughout the area. The existing water supply system has inadequate capacity to meet the demand. The high population growth in the larger cities increases the shortages. The area generally is quite arid which has also resulted in migration to the larger cities. At this moment there is a small drinking WTP located between Bolgatanga and Bongo, supplying both cities with insufficient capacity. After the foreseen system change this WTP will be dedicated to Bongo and its surroundings. The raw water source for this system the Vea irrigation reservoir is exploited to its limit which eliminates the possibility of extended use. To supply the cities of Bolgatanga Navrongo and their surroundings a new raw water source and a new WTP is foreseen. The above solution will close the demand gap after its completion. The number of people that will be supplied with potable water in 2030 is estimated to be 310,488. Of these people 230,488 currently do not have access to potable water. The remaining 80,000 will have access to a more reliable connection.
Validating a franchise model to provide Indian lower middle class with healthy and affordable meals In India the growth of the lower middle classes has led to an increasing number of people suffering from overweight and obesities, mostly in informal settlements and slumps. People have little knowledge of health, hygiene and good quality nutritious food and are being confronted with cheap and unhealthy snacks everywhere. For various reasons people have no access to good quality, healthy and nutritious food.  People’s Meals is a Dutch social entrepreneurial business venture in Delhi, India, locally active under the name of Homeals.  The company aims to make low cost high quality and healthy meals available to large numbers of people. Technical Assistance (DGGF-TA) provided support to validate the commercial viability of the model and to prepare for future scale-up investments. The project included the upscaling of the central kitchen and standardising cooking processes to prepare meals, set-up a cold-distribution network and the set-up of a replicable franchise model to eventually produce and serve 10,000 meals per day each.  The project supported 14 direct jobs, 16 indirect jobs, provided on the job training and knowledge transfer to 14 people and has led to Food Safety and Security Certification in India. Currently, the franchise model is still  under development after which the company is hopeful to be able to raise further investments to upscale and replicate the model across North-India.

Jack Fruit from Uganda Fiber Foods offers dried  jackfruit fibers from East Africa to the vegetarian food industry in the Netherlands, who use the dried jackfruit as a natural fiber to make their vegetarian products healthier and tastier. Currently they use textured soy bean or peas, which gives the balls or burgers a sticky bite and on top of that the texturization of soybean is an energy draining process. Fiber Foods has built an entire value chain in East Africa, where the jackfruit is harvested and processed with the aim to create opportunities for women. The jack fruit were not Via a pre-financing loan Fiber Foods is able to advance the production of 3 containers of dried jackfruit. One container holds 7500 KG of dried jackfruit that is dried in both Uganda and Kenya out of 100,000 KG of jackfruit. This jackfruit is harvested twice a week with a group of more than a 1000 farmers. Instead of 8 containers of pasteurised jackfruit (in a brine) Fiber Foods ships only 1 container, leading to a smaller footprint than regular jackfruit.

Importing recycled PET In Europe is a strong growing demand for recycled PET (transparent plastics mostly used for bottles and packaging) of a certain quality. In Asian and Africa countries, more specific Indonesia, Bangladesh and South Africa, there is a strong growth of consumption in PET, therefore growing volume of plastic waste. A strong local demand for the waste RPET is absent which creates a business opportunity in exporting RPET to Europe. DGGF TA helped pre-finance 7 containers of PET waste from Indonesia, Bangladesh and South Africa. The import of PET has led to a lot of supported indirect jobs in the countries, both at the factories where PET is being sorted and processed, but also among waste collectors. These specific shippings have led to 45 FTE. During the course of the project approximately 600 people have been trained on what plastics to collect, sorting of materials, using machinery and cleaning of the products. As a result of the project, the recycling industry in developing countries will be strengthened and CO2 emissions in Europe diminish, as recycled PET needs far less energy compared to virgin PET.
Coastal Protection at Gn. Fuvahmulah (Implementation Phase) The project is situated on the southern islands of the Maldives: Gn. Fuvahmulah, S. Maradhoo and S. Feydhoo. In the Maldives over 80% of the islands in the country are experiencing serious beach problems and coastal erosion. These problems can result in flooding of the islands as they are only 1 to 2 meters above sea level. The southern islands are in most urgent need for coastal protection compared to other islands. As they are isolated from the other islands in the Maldives they do not benefit from any protection against waves and currents from other islands.All southern islands are densely populated. Land on Fuvahmulah Maradhoo and Feydhoo is very scarce and the continuous erosion and salt intrusion further reduce the available land and make the land more vulnerable to sea induced flooding.  In Fuvahmulah one of the largest islands in the Maldives the shoreline is never further away than approximately 400 meters. On the islands of Maradhoo and Feydhoo which are fully occupied by buildings and infrastructure nobody is living more than 200 meters from the shoreline. The southern islands are crucial in maintaining the socio economic balance of the country.The long term overall objective of the project is to protect the southern islands of Fuvahmulah Maradhoo and Feydhoo against flooding due to rising sea-level and the ongoing coast erosion in order to protect the population of these islands. The combination of beach replenishment with revetments will protect the shorelines of the southern islands of Maldives against erosion and subsequent flooding in a sustainable effective and cost-efficient way.
Reflow DGGF TA: validating and upscaling the production of recycled plastic materials for 3D printing in Dehli, India Globally, more than 270 million tons of plastic waste is produced each year, of which only 5% is re-used but not suitable for further recycling. Each kg of new plastics creates 0.5 kg of CO2 and is expected to make up for 15% of the total global Co2 production by 2050. Existing production methods and industries are damaging the environment rapidly and the negative impacts are mostly visible in fast growing upcoming markets like India. In addition, 3D printing is one of the fastest growing industries, and if 3D printing does not become sustainable it will quickly become a significant source of plastic pollution. Reflow Filament therefore produces flexible and modular 3D printing material (filament) of industrial quality from recycled plastic through its own plastic extrusion technology of which a significant part was developed in India. Its production hubs are located worldwide and aims to improve the entire plastics value chain by using local plastic waste streams to create this product. In order to prepare for future investments and scale-up production of recycled plastics for 3D printing, Technical Assistance (DGGF-TA) provided support to pilot Reflow in India. The pilot project includes the identification of waste streams and supply chain development, scale-up of the production facility and capacity to 1,000 plastic spools based on 95% recycled materials per month, the expansion of the product portfolio, the commercial and technical validation of the first products (Pet) and the development of a founded business plan to attract follow up investments. The project is ongoing and upon successful completion further investments in local production and the supply chain will take place, which may lead to 140 new jobs and sustainable knowledge transfer within the next 5 years, as well as a reduction of plastic waste of 80,000 kg and 45,000 kg of CO2 emissions. Furthermore, Reflow shares its profits in India with a local NGO representing informal waste pickers with the aim to improve their livelihoods and working conditions and to provide their children with access to education to prevent child labour. 180 children of informal waste pickers, of which +120 young girls, already received education through this partnership.
