Electriciens sans frontières (Electricians Without Borders or EWB) is a French international aid nonprofit organisation, which has impacted the lives of millions of people over the last 30 years in more than 40 countries. Targeting the most isolated and vulnerable, it improves their access to safe, sustainable, and clean energy and water, for public services (education, health) and income-generating activities. As a result of winning the 2020 Zayed Sustainability Prize in the Energy category, EWB has been able to extend clean energy access to 23,000 rural, low-income Madagascar residents and beyond. In this episode, CleanTechnica CEO Zach Shahan interviews Tania Chauvin, Senior Project Manager, Electriciens Sans Frontières.
