PROJECT 1
Latrines Project
In early fall of 2012, EWB-RHIT applied for a partnership with the community of Gomoa Gyaman (“go-Moh-ah Jah-mon”), Ghana. Gomoa Gyaman is a village of approximately 2,500 individuals located about fifty miles from Accra, the capital of Ghana. The community had reached out to Engineers Without Borders-USA seeking help to improve their current living conditions. EWB RHIT was accepted to begin this program with the community in early spring of 2013.
Summer 2013
Club members and mentors traveled on an initial assessment trip to Gomoa Gyaman from August 16th to August 27th, 2013. During their time in the community, they met with village elders to discuss the needs of the community.
Summer 2015
After two years of overcoming many design and logistic obstacles, the club returned to the community in August of 2015 to begin construction of the first of two ventilated pit latrines.
Summer 2016
In the summer of 2016, EWB-RHIT completed a third implementation trip.

Spring 2017
In March of 2017, EWB-RHIT conducted an additional implementation trip where the superstructure of the second latrine was constructed. On this trip interior and exterior walls, the roof, and the water stand were all built.
Winter 2018
In winter of 2018, 5 students and two mentors returned to Gomoa Gyaman on a monitoring and evaluation trip to ensure things were performing as they should. On this trip the finishing touches for the second latrine was made. The team checked for overall improvements within health and sanitation by searching for indicators of open defecation and retesting for E. Coli.
