Abstract

The Branch Foundation (TBF) will provide solar lighting for every family and a school in an internally displaced persons (IDP) camp in Shan State, Burma. The camp is unable to receive electricity from the main power grid. This project ensures sustainable and environmentally friendly power for the most vulnerable people. Residents currently rely on expensive kerosene lamps and candles, which pose fire risks to the thatched homes and prevent the camp's students from studying after sundown.
