👉 The Bleeding Project is an initiative by the nonprofit organization 17 Degrees, aimed at addressing the global water crisis through innovative, community-driven solutions. It focuses on providing sustainable water access and sanitation in underserved regions by leveraging local knowledge, technology, and partnerships. The project emphasizes decentralized water systems, such as rainwater harvesting, greywater recycling, and low-cost filtration technologies, to ensure long-term viability and community ownership. By empowering local communities to manage their water resources, the Bleeding Project seeks to create resilient, self-sufficient systems that can withstand environmental and economic challenges, ultimately improving health, education, and economic opportunities in water-stressed areas.
