What Billions in Change does Differently
The key is enablement - offering a hand up, not a hand out. These inventions focus on providing free electricity, clean water, and free fertiliser because addressing these fundamental needs "enables" everything that follows. This approach creates the conditions that empower people to become further educated, take care of their health, and make a living. The fundamental areas of energy, water, food, and health help not only wellness and livelihood, but they also propel lasting solutions to the world’s biggest problems.
Together, we can make a difference.
