William Kamkwamba
Kasungu
The windmill story is now part of how Malawi explains itself.
Sample profile for the homepage. An editor still needs to confirm the details.
William Kamkwamba built a windmill from scrap as a teenager in Kasungu when his family could not afford school fees. The story became a book and a film, The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind. He is still the example people use when they talk about making things with what you have.
