This case study is about Pump Aid, an organization that developed and installed a low-cost pump called the Elephant Pump to tackle the problem of water scarcity in African countries. Established in 1998, Pump Aid adopted an innovative approach to providing water and sanitation solutions to communities in rural Africa by installing these cost-effective water pumps and toilet systems. The Elephant Pumps were built using local materials and were based on the rope and washer pump technology. As the pump handle was turned, water was drawn up by plastic washers attached to a rope. The pump could lift water from up to 50 meters deep and produced one liter of water every second. The pedal powered mechanism also made pumping water fun as children played on the pumps. | |
The Elephant Pump, initially developed and tested in Zimbabwe, was mainly installed in Malawi and Zimbabwe where the incidence of water-borne diseases was common. According to some analysts, the installation of the community-centered Elephant Pumps improved the socio-economic life of the people in the rural villages in Africa. The pumps contributed to community development and created a positive impact on the livelihood of villagers in terms of gender equality, health, and time-savings. They felt that the pumps were innovative, cost effective, and could be maintained by the rural communities without any outside assistance. However, there were others who were doubtful about their sustainability. | |
