Recycled Materials To Make Solar-Powered School Backpacks
February 06, 2025
Learning to read after school can be tricky enough when the lights are on, but imagine trying to do your homework without any light at all.
This is the situation school children in rural parts of Africa can find themselves in, with some families having to burn expensive and polluting oils in lamps so their children can learn at night.
