The Sanivation Project aims to provide Kenya's Kakuma refugee camp with sanitation and sustainable energy by turning human waste into fuel briquettes
Many officials hope the project will not only save energy, but also improve people's quality of life.
Aid organisations say lack of proper waste sanitation at one of the world's largest refugee camps is linked to outbreaks of diarrhoea and cholera. The camp has no flushing toilets and instead, people use pit latrines that are decommissioned once they're full. But when it rains, human waste sometimes leaks out, and can lead to an outbreak of diarrhoea and cholera and a pilot project is hoping to change that.
