In Uganda, a group of students engineered something powerful from something portable — solar tents that fold neatly into backpacks. Designed for those without stable housing, these tents aren’t just shelters — they’re lifelines. Each unit unfolds into a waterproof dome with solar panels stitched onto the fabric. During the day, they absorb enough sunlight to power a built-in LED light and a small USB port for charging basic devices. At night, the tent glows gently — providing visibilit... see more In Uganda, a group of students engineered something powerful from something portable — solar tents that fold neatly into backpacks. Designed for those without stable housing, these tents aren’t just shelters — they’re lifelines. Each unit unfolds into a waterproof dome with solar panels stitched onto the fabric. During the day, they absorb enough sunlight to power a built-in LED light and a small USB port for charging basic devices. At night, the tent glows gently — providing visibility, a sense of security, and the dignity of private space. But the design’s genius is in its portability. When folded, the tent compresses into a lightweight backpack with straps, making it easy for someone on the move. No bulky frames. No extra gear. Just grab and go — a temporary home on your shoulders. The students behind the project were inspired by street families and refugee communities who had nothing to protect them from rain, sun, or theft. Their prototype combines recycled plastic fabric with flexible solar film — sourced from local suppliers to keep costs down and production ethical. Some tents are now being distributed through humanitarian groups across East Africa. They’ve become especially useful in regions facing climate disasters, forced evictions, or sudden displacement. This Ugandan invention proves that empathy can be engineered — that real solutions don’t need steel and glass, but creativity stitched with purpose. A backpack, a light, a roof — and the chance to sleep with a little more peace. #SolarShelter #UgandaInnovation #DesignForDignity

Extracting salt from Lake Rosa or Lake Retba, Senegal :flag_sn:

Lake Rosa (locally known as Lake Retba) is located north of the Senegalese peninsula of Cape Verde, northeast of the African country.
35 km distance from Dakar. It has a surface area of 3 km2.
The adjective pink comes from the color of its waters, which turn especially pink during the dry season.

Lake Rosa (locally known as Lake Retba) is located north of the Senegalese peninsula of Cape Verde, northeast of the African country.
35 km distance from Dakar. It has a surface area of 3 km2.
The adjective pink comes from the color of its waters, which turn especially pink during the dry season.
This is due to an algae called (Dunaliella salina) that manufactures a red pigment to absorb sunlight.
The high level of salinity allows, as happens in the Dead Sea, people float with ease.
