“Bubbles, charts and systems will not replace people, tools and passion.”
PP’s comment in 2014 after enduring yet another “expert” academic presentation on Indigenous housing.
The PPF is on the lookout for 2 people with passion to work on our Nepal project in Nov 2020...tools supplied.
Applications close end of June, long way off but time passes quickly. Info available on the PPF website. Previous applicants can reapply, we’ll be in touch.
Merry Christmas to all from the PPF teams and a great thanks for the support this year.
Our 2020 Fellowship team visit has been shifted to October, will keep you posted. Stay safe one and all.
Today is World Toilet Day. PP started the village sanitation program in 2007, leading teams to build toilet systems in 3 poor villages in Nepal over 8 years. He was exploring moves to other villages by building first a school toilet block, a process that would test the strength of future village toilet construction partnerships. Sadly he was taken from us too soon and these next village based steps ceased. The PPF, through small early steps, is rebuilding and strengthening partnerships new and old, to continue PP’s efforts to improve sanitation and living conditions in Nepal.
Notice to all......the date for PPF 2020 Fellowship applications has been extended to COB Friday 22 November.
Due to circumstances well beyond our control the PPF and other websites were down at the end of last week.
Applications successfully received to date have been acknowledged by a PPF email message.
Bishnu and the Dhulikhel Hospital team assessing the scope of works for the PPF 2020 team at the hospital’s outreach centre in Dhading district.
Public and patient toilet/shower facilities are in need of upgrading, water supply needs to be reinstated at the community toilet block.
Plenty of opportunities for a plumber/architect team to work with keen Nepali teams. Applications for the PPF 2020 Team close on 15 November. Namaste!
Hmmm....
The PPF still believes in the provision of well built toilets....
