Abstract	Most households in Kyrgyzstan do not have access to improved water and sanitation systems. In the cold winters, the heating costs are very high. The Home Comforts Project will use new approaches to improve this situation through involving the youth and women as well as applying locally trained staff and local materials. Additionally, the project will build local capacity through training facilitators who instruct local staff on the construction and maintenance of the respective technologies offered here.
