We run a variety of projects, including hydropower, fuel-efficient cookstoves, biogas, and water quality monitoring in Rwanda, Tanzania and West Virginia. DHE's small-scale hydropower project was recently recognized as an Outstanding Student Humanitarian project in the IEEE's 2011 Change the World contest for its innovative engineering concept and business model. 20 students, from freshman to post-grads, have spent a term traveling for DHE in the last year. Our partners include CARE International, the Jane Goodall Institute, the Rwandan Ministry of Infrastructure, and other engineering student groups at Imperial College London and the Kigali Institute of Science and Technology.
