Millennium Fellowship Project: Sustainable development with Geophysics
The SD with G project was designed with the sole purpose of improving the living situations of people in rural and remote communities in Nigeria by providing an enabling environment for growth, good health, education and economic advancement through the utilization of their natural resources for the development of renewable energy for ground water production and electrification.
In the absence of requisite funding and financial sources, I took to learning new skills in programming and AI to develop a solution that helps NGOs and other government agencies locate and identify communities that are in dire need of portable water.
