The AguaClara Project at Cornell provides students with hands-on experience in the research, design, implementation, and promotion of small-scale, ecologically and economically sustainable technologies for drinking water treatment systems that can operate without an external power source and be maintained by rural communities in the Global South.
Thus far, students have helped construct five water plants, serving 15,000 people in Honduras. Course credit and internships are available.
