Village Solutions For Global Change
Green Empowerment works with local partners around the world to strengthen communities by delivering renewable energy and safe clean water. We are change agents in many places. We operate in the Philippines, Nicaragua, Peru, Ecuador, Malaysian Borneo, and Myanmar/Burma. Our vision is to create an equitable and sustainable world where everyone has clean water, renewable energy, and a healthy environment in which to grow and thrive.

We believe in keeping overhead low, benefiting the public in a positive way, strategic design and development of projects, locally maintained technology, social justice, strong backing from local leadership, useful/sustainable practices, and a deep environmental impact.
