A Livelihood From Sunshine
Women entrepreneurs, like Chantou Owingaberi of Rwanda, are earning a living while the sun shines, plus helping their neighbors, their families and the world. This video is part of This Planet, which makes it easy to watch and share, to contribute and act, and to drill down to the source materials.
It began with a charming video about a likable young woman in Rwanda who works for the NGO Solar Sister, selling solar lamps to her neighbors. Chantal Uwingaberi is earning a living while the sun shines, plus helping her neighbors, her family and the world. The idea is that women like Chantal will aid rural development, get her neighbors off expensive and unhealthy kerosene, and spend her earnings to feed and educate her children.
