About

greenap is a non-governmental organisation based in Bonn, Germany working on environment & climate, poverty & hunger, water & sanitation.

greenap (green energy against poverty e.V.) is a German registered association based in Bonn that fights poverty and climate change through decentralised renewable energy. It implements projects that provide solar lamps, efficient stoves, water filters and solar kiosks to low-income and indigenous communities, mainly in India and, from a newer project, Bangladesh. The organisation also publishes information on climate change and sustainability and sees its solutions as an alternative to large-scale infrastructure projects such as dams.
