‘Guiding Light’ campaign

A total of 10,000 solar lanterns will be distributed across remote villages in five countries from December 6 to January 9, 2019.

Each event will use 2,000 lanterns, which will be donated to off-grid communities. Following the launch in Bahrain yesterday, the campaign will move on to Bolivia, where the Zayed Sustainability Prize team will work closely with 2017 Global High Schools (GHS) winner, Unidad Educativa Sagrado Corazon 4.

In Bangladesh, the collaboration is with the inaugural Prize winner, Dipal Barua and in Kenya, with 2013 Prize winner d.light.
