The mission of SELCO Foundation is to use sustainable energy as a catalyst to democratise healthcare and livelihoods. When we speak about renewable energy, we often focus our conversations on the Decentralised Renewable Energy (DRE) technology and the equipment: solar panels, batteries, earthing cables, and charge controllers. However, the discourse must be about the delivery of health and livelihoods — it must become about the communities who use the solutions we build.


Health is a fundamental right. Without addressing the health crisis, we cannot solve poverty. From the micro point of view, it leads to better education for children, better livelihoods, and a better family life. On a macro level, healthy citizens contribute to the progress of the community, the region, and humanity as a whole.
