WASH Fellow, Thando Ray, has recently joined the team in Eswatini, although he has been working with EIA remotely since November, 2024. Thando is a great resource to have in the office and in the field working on our WASH projects and helping to develop the program and its resources. Thando comes to us with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and a minor in Human Services. He has diverse experience interning with other development organizations designing projects from clean burning cookstoves in Ghana, to mechanical assessments for installation of oxygen plants at hospitals in Sierra Leone, to biogas digesters in Indonesia. He has traveled and lived all over the world. His engineering skills have already benefited EIA in the production of design templates and we are excited to put his human service background to use for developing community training materials.
