KITA fully wired to be connected to a Grid by April 30, 2009

Since January 2006, PPPF has worked with the Kumasi Institute of Tropical Agriculture, an award winning Institution to research and expand knowledge in the MORE system and provide training for adopted families in the MORE system. PPPF has provided tech transfer and tools for capacity building to improve curriculum at the KITA to better train participants in the MORE system. KITA has been off the grid since 1993 when it moved into its current site or location. Students and trainees have therefore lived on power supplied by a generator bought and shipped to the school by PPPF in January 2007.

In March 2009, PPPF has provided support for KITA to be connected to the grid. KITA has been wired and the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has promised that permits and reading meters will be ready by 30th April 2009.

When KITA gets hooked to electricity, the MORE curriculum will be documented unto computers, and the advantages to the MORE training cannot be overstated.
