SAMASODU
Outreach
The village of Samasodu is located north of the capital, Honiara, and is only accessible via a 22 hour boat trip that is only available on a fortnightly basis. The village has a population survive on subsistence agriculture and fishing. The village is in a stable socio/political environment.
We conducted our first project in the Solomon Islands during 2006 to build a medical clinic. This was followed by various health & infrastructure projects including nurse houses, a rest house that sleeps 30 people, a 3km long pipeline that reliably connected the village to clean water and sanitation.
Our next focus is education. At present we are building the Katova District High School which will serve seven villages and a total population of about 15 000 people. The nearest high school is 6 hours away by boat!
