In Ethiopia, many communicable diseases are attributed to limited access to safe water. Thus, we design a Fog-Harvesting Tower to improve water supplies in water insecure districts, which works by collecting moisture in the air. The water tower is estimated to collect up to 165.7 L of water daily. Besides, we combined our design with the Dorze communities’ culture, keeping Dorze’s weaving tradition alive.
