Ways to Partner

Programme support and three ready-to-use packages. In each, we deliver the work with you and train your team to carry it forward.

Support for programmes and partners

Programme diagnostics and scoping

Field studies for donors, NGOs and water utilities before a programme is designed: households, finance, supply and government, to find the real bottleneck and the right product.

Technical partner on programmes

A turnkey technical partner in consortia and tenders, bringing tested products, curricula and supply models so budgets aren't spent reinventing prototypes.

Ways to partner with us

Three ready-to-use packages. In each, we deliver the work with you and train your team to do it themselves, so the capacity stays after the programme ends.

Market-based sanitation for a town

We deliver

  1. Situation analysis: households (willingness and ability to pay), suppliers and artisans, lenders, and government offices, plus the local climate risks.
  2. Small-scale pilot: demand creation; climate-proof products and trained artisans and producers; loan products with local lenders.
  3. Refine and scale: review the pilot, adjust demand, supply and finance, then roll out town-wide with emptying and treatment planned in.

We train your team

  • How to run a situation analysis
  • Marketing and demand creation
  • Working with lenders on sanitation loans
  • Molds, technologies and climate-proof construction
  • Organising the supply and construction chain

Nature-based wastewater treatment for a site

We deliver

  1. Feasibility study: data collection, site and climate risk assessment.
  2. Design: pre-feasibility and final design of horizontal or vertical flow constructed wetlands, by gravity or pumped.
  3. Construction supervision with local contractors.
  4. Operation and maintenance guidelines and handover to the community, institution or water utility.

We train your team

  • How to run a feasibility study
  • Constructed wetland design
  • Step-by-step construction
  • Operation and maintenance

Sanitation services for a water utility

We deliver

  1. Joint assessment: wastewater, sludge, land, the sewer readiness of household toilets, and the team that will run the service.
  2. Design: constructed wetlands, anaerobic baffled reactors or faecal sludge treatment, plus toilet retrofits where sewers are planned.
  3. Build and hand over: construction supervision, operator training, operation and maintenance guidelines, and follow-up. More for water utilities

We train your team

  • Planning sanitation services
  • Operating treatment systems
  • Sludge emptying and transport services
  • Household connections and toilet retrofits
  • Cost recovery and service models
