REWIRE will conduct surveys and workshops that will build local capacity in renewable energy technology on Sumba island in Ubu Oleta and Walakari Villages. Technology transfer will enable local communities to use local materials to install autonomous generation. The project promotes gender equity, ease of replicability, cultural exchange, climate adaptation, and Australian expertise.
