Our Lighting Solutions
In Brazil, millions of people still live without adequate access to electricity or rely on precarious and dangerous sources of lighting.
The lack of lighting or poor lighting inside homes (such as the use of kerosene lamps or candles) makes it harder for children to study, for people to work, and to carry out basic activities with comfort and safety. It also increases the risk of fires and, in the case of kerosene lamps, can harm health and contribute to pollution.
Litro de Luz uses simple materials to make solar lighting accessible to low-income communities, bringing light into the lives of those who still lack proper access to electricity. We train residents to install, replicate, and maintain the technology. These solutions are made from simple materials such as PVC pipes and PET bottles and are based on solar energy.
