UNIGAIA is an association of prefiguration of SCIC-SAS specialized in the field of health water and more precisely of the problems of hydration of the elderly in France and of children in several African countries. Our action is based on the creation of micro units of production and food resilience (M.U.P.R.A.) allowing the local production of a thermal quality water that can be modulated or even personalized for the elderly, packaged in an ecological way and delivered to the homes of the elderly with electric vehicles. We tick all the boxes: health, ecology, local economy and intergenerational links. Unigaïa is also a member of a consortium of six African NGOs (Benin, Burkina Faso and Togo) whose goal is to equip schools and health centers with water purification systems for children. Operation Afrigaïa.
