Transform Water access in Africa with Oasis water.
Oasis aims to provide sustainable and reliable water solutions to enhance water accessibility for rural communities across Africa through innovative water management systems and groundbreaking technologies.
Water Access at a Glance Across Africa
Over 300 million people in Africa still lack access to clean water.
Water Access and Availability.
Approximately 40% of the population relies on unsafe water sources for their daily needs. In rural areas, this number is even higher, with communities walking an average of 6 kilometers daily to collect water
Impact of Poor Water Management on Agriculture
Up to 70% of Africa's agricultural sector relies on rain-fed systems, making it highly vulnerable to climate variability and poor water management. This puts millions of farmers at risk of crop failure, food insecurity, and poverty due to inconsistent water supply.
Water Scarcity: A Growing Crisis
By 2025, it is estimated that 1.8 billion people will live in areas with absolute water scarcity, and Africa will be one of the most impacted regions.
Sanitation and Water-Related Diseases
Poor access to clean water and sanitation contributes to the spread of waterborne diseases like cholera and dysentery. In Africa, around 115 people die every hour from diseases linked to inadequate sanitation, poor hygiene, and contaminated water sources.
Wastewater Recycling: Turning Waste into a Water Resource
Only 5% of wastewater in Africa is currently treated and reused, leaving a vast potential for improving water availability through recycling. By implementing advanced wastewater treatment systems, we can recycle water for agriculture, industry, and even household use.
Rainwater Harvesting: A Sustainable Solution.
Rainwater harvesting could provide up to 500 billion cubic meters of water across Africa annually. If implemented on a larger scale, it could significantly reduce water stress in rural communities by capturing and storing rainwater for agricultural and domestic use.
What African Students Are Saying
A collection of real stories on water issues across Africa.
I have seen communities where access to clean water has always been a challenge. Students often walk or bike several kilometers to find water, and even then, it's not guaranteed to be safe for drinking.

In many regions in Ghana, water sources are often contaminated due to poor sanitation practices as a result of illegal minig.
Ansah Beatrice
Accra, Ghana
In urban areas like Nairobi, water shortages are frequent. Sometimes, entire neighborhoods go without running water for days.
Ian Musembe

Access to clean water in Ghana is an ongoing struggle, especially in remote areas. Waterborne diseases are common. A solution like Oasis would mean better health for communities.

The Nile is the main source of water in Egypt but it's contaminated. Unfortunately not everyone has access to proper purification systems.
Ahmed Moussa

In Ethiopia, people rely heavily on seasonal rains for farming, but with unpredictable weather patterns, crops often suffer. A consistent water supply could change everything.

Innovative Water Solutions for a Sustainable Future
Solutions designed to ensure a cleaner, more sustainable water future for rural and urban communities alike.
Clean Water from Air.
Atmospheric Water Panels that harness atmospheric vapor and convert it into clean, fresh drinking water, providing a reliable water source even in areas with limited rainfall.
Building-Integrated Design
Designed to be easily installed on rooftops, making them an ideal solution for urban and rural buildings alike, without taking up extra ground space.
Sustainable and Eco-Friendly
Powered by renewable energy, the panels produce water with minimal environmental impact, reducing dependency on traditional water supply systems.
Irrigation and Animal Drinking Water
Decentralized Waste Water Recycling centers to recycle wastewater, making it suitable for agricultural irrigation and providing safe water for animal consumption, tapping into an often-overlooked water source.
Rural Focused
Specifically designed for rural farming areas, the decentralized system brings water solutions directly to where they are most needed, reducing water scarcity and improving crop yield.
Localized and Scalable.
Each recycling center is tailored to the community it serves, making it a scalable solution that grows alongside the needs of the area.
