#Tanzania project flyover shows what #MEER#ultracool rooftops look like from above. Passive cooling technology reduces the cavity temps by up to 12C. As the world continues to warm, affordable, durable, & scalable cooling solutions are required. In partnership with @opendeved
The picture below shows our project in Tanzania which has been yielding great results to date. The latest analysis shows that the inside roof cavity is up to 12°C cooler with the MEER sheeting installed. The site is also a comparison test site in partnership with @opendeved

The #MEER partnership with @opendeved in #Tanzania has begun. The first installation of MEER Ultra-cool roofs has taken place on some of the school buildings identified. MEER will be part of scientific comparison trials looking at different heat #adaptation methods.
Dr. Tao meeting with the team from @opendeved in Tanzania to plan the installation of #MEER Ultra-cool roofs. They also investigated a local reed for its potential in soundproofing against rain-induced noise on metal roofing.

During the panel session on “Empowering the Global South” at #WISE11, @NarimanMoustafa shared her thoughts about the concept of coloniality.
She raises the question: We need to ask ourselves how does education teach us to define success, progress, and happiness?

The "Improving Learning through Classroom Experience" study conducted a comfort survey with the students & walk-through survey with school personnel to understand classroom conditions.
Here's some preliminary insights on students' answers: https://t.co/5KgRHWDsr0 @AKF_EA
For the study “Improving Learning through Classroom Experience”, our team conducted two pilots at Aga Khan Mzizima Secondary School. The first focused on trialling environmental sensors and analysing their accuracy. Find out more here -> https://t.co/yLlpQQ0gFB
