Translation of the video texts into English: HEALTHY KITCHEN: Clearing the air in African schools In Africa, school meals are vital to children's health and their ability to learn effectively. In many contexts, these meals are the main source of balanced nutrition for children. Of the thousands of primary schools in Tanzania, more than 90% rely on firewood to cook meals for staff and pupils. This amounts to an annual consumption of more than 1 million metric tonnes of fuelwood in Tanzania, contributing substantially to the country's deforestation. Firewood is often burned in large cauldrons to cook rice, beans, ugali and other traditional foods that can take a long time to cook. The burning of firewood creates a toxic smoke environment in the kitchens of schools and education centres, which is inhaled by the cooks, but also by pupils and teachers, as air pollution permeates school spaces,including canteens, classrooms and playgrounds and other common areas. KABANGA KITCHEN: habitability for a hygienic kitchen. The kitchen of the Kabanga school centre is a clear example of what we have just explained and represents the reality faced by all schools when it comes to cooking. A hygienic and sanitary kitchen for the Kabanga school is essential to protect health. and improve the well-being of all the children and people who live and work here. It not only prevents food-borne diseases, but also contributes to improved nutrition, promotes long-term safe eating practices and has an impact on children's school performance. The kitchen of the Kabanga school centre provides 3 meals a day to its boarders (around 200 people including students, teachers and staff), which translates into 600 meals per day, or more than 200,000 meals per year. The Tanzanian government has announced that 31 January 2025 will be the deadline for institutions to stop using fuelwood will be the deadline for institutions to stop using firewood or charcoal for cooking in order to save the environment. KARIBIA's project for the integral rehabilitation of the Kabanga school centre's kitchen aims to promote the right to health of all its residents with a "clean cooking", guaranteeing food safety and minimising the risk of continuous exposure to fumes from fossil fuel combustion.

Después del paro escolar vacacional, empezamos la ultima parte de la primera fase de este proyecto cuyo objetivo era terminar y hacer habitable el nuevo módulo dormitorio para 80 niños del centro Kabanga. Este último tramo consistente en la pintura de todo el edificio y completar los aseos y su conexión a la red de agua ha sido posible gracias a recursos propios obtenidos de aportaciones individuales y de los socios. A día de hoy, el interior y exterior del centro ya está todo terminado y el servicio de agua funcionando y solo queda algún retoque de pintura y limpiar y despejar todo por dentro. ________________________________________________________________ After the school holiday break, last week we started the last part of the first phase of this project whose aim was to finish and make habitable the new dormitory module for 80 children of the Kabanga centre. This last part, which consisted of painting the whole building and completing the toilets and connecting them to the water supply, was made possible thanks to our own resources obtained from individual contributions and those of our members. As of today, the interior of the centre and the façade are all finished and the water service is working, and the only thing left to do is to touch up the paint and clean and clear everything inside.

Proyecto Nuevo Dormitorio Centro Kabanga, Tanzania

Hoy os mostramos como es un día cualquiera en el Centro escuela Kabanga para niños con discapacidad y niños con albinismo. La comunidad, las instalaciones, las actividades, y sobre todo los niños, niñas y jóvenes que aquí conviven en armonía y en comunidad a pesar de la situación de precariedad que presenta el recinto. Una razón de peso que nos lleva a seguir proponiendo proyectos para mejorar las condiciones de vida de todos ellos y seguir solicitando la colaboración de todos para poder llevarlos a cabo. ___________________________________________________________________________ Today we show you what a typical day is like at the Kabanga School Centre for children with disabilities and children with albinism. The community, the facilities, the activities, and above all the children and young people who live here in harmony and in community despite the precarious situation of the premises. A compelling reason that leads us to continue proposing projects to improve the living conditions of all of them and to continue requesting everyone's collaboration in order to carry them out.

Los primeros trabajos realizados han sido la construcción de un falso techo y su recubrimiento con placas de yeso y repaso general de las paredes. Se ha nivelado y pavimentado todo el suelo del edificio con mortero de cemento. También se ha llevado a cabo la instalación eléctrica de todo el edificio, distribuyendo varios puntos de luz con sus interruptores en la zona habitacional y en los aseos. Se han colocado 26 ventanas grandes de aluminio paneleadas con sus mosquiteras y las 18 medianas y pequeñas entre las de los aseos y las complementarias. Se encargaron a carpinteros locales las 6 puertas principales y las 10 puertas individuales de los aseos. La zona de baño se ha completado con un lavadero y 4 letrinas, 1 retrete para los niños con discapacidad física, urinarios, un lavamanos y 5 duchas con todos los desagües acabados. En el exterior del edificio, se han acondicionado las rampas en los diferentes accesos que tiene el dormitorio. Y en la parte trasera de la zona de aseos se ha construido la fosa séptica, que es esencial debido a la falta de alcantarillado público. Una fosa séptica con dos cámaras, una receptora de todo y donde se depositarán los sólidos, y otra por donde se desviarán los líquidos. ______________________________________________________________The first works carried out were the construction of a false ceiling and its covering with plasterboard and general repointing of the walls. The entire floor of the building has been levelled and paved with cement mortar. The electrical installation of the entire building has also been carried out, distributing several light points with their switches in the living area and in the toilets. Twenty-six large panelled aluminium windows with their mosquito nets and 18 medium and small windows have been installed in the toilets and other areas. The 6 main doors and 10 individual doors for the toilets were ordered from local carpenters. The bathroom area has been completed with a laundry room and 4 latrines, 1 toilet for physically handicapped children, urinals, a hand basin and 5 showers with all the drains completed. On the outside of the building, ramps have been installed at the different entrances to the dormitory. And at the back of the toilet area, the septic tank has been built, which is essential due to the lack of public sewage. A septic tank with two chambers, one receiving everything and where the solids will be deposited, and the other where the liquids will be diverted.
