If you are from Lusaka, Zambia, or have lived there, read this. I'm part of an awesome organization started here in Canada, called Engineers Without Borders (www.ewb.ca), Carleton University Student Chapter. We use our technical skills to help those around us. Anyways, we're doing some research into applying a better light source for a village in Lusaka, and now, we need to know more about the conditions in Lusaka. What's available, what would be preferred etc etc. If you could email me about
* living conditions in Lusaka
* light sources currently available
* problems/improvements with light & power
* sustainable development/technological development in Lusaka
* anything at all about this, email me or follow the thread in the cross-cultural section.
