By placing 6 goats at the schoolyard we generate finance for maintenance. Their offspring will be sold by HOAT and this money will be used to replace the filter cartridges when necessary. Other ideas of the school’s principal and teachers to generate money to replace the cartridges will be considered as they show up.
HOAT stays in control of the system and the school’s principal signs an agreement in which he declares to cooperate with HOAT in order to keep the system functioning.
Small maintenance of the system will be carried out by the school caretaker.
HOAT will be able to perform maintenance that the school is not able to take care of. HOAT will continue to monitor the school’s system which is possible by having “HOAT people” present in the area. 4 schools have been equipped already and more will follow, creating multiplying and effects, and also ensuring sustainibility.
