DrainUpGrader
Women Building the City aims to make a difference through multiple projects. Its first involvement is with a project called the DrainUpGrader. This is an endeavor conceptualised by the company NETICS. Their product is a machine that will be deployed in Ghana which will help improve the country’s drainage system by vastly expanding its drainage network. This is made possible by the use of specialised machinery: the DrainUpGrader. Women Building the City is working together with DrainUpGrader by providing education and training.
Women are trained to operate the DrainUpGrader. The practical skills they acquire in this process transcend the DrainUpGrader project; after completion of this project, the women can apply their skillset in a wide range of construction related projects.
