Description of the water treatment plant

The water kiosk model we implement is able to provide durably affordable safe drinking water. Our solution offers a unique combination of three characteristics: (i) water quality at WHO standards provided up to the point of consumption; (ii) affordability for the most vulnerable populations thanks to a decentralized approach reducing the costs; and (iii) sustainability of the services through a market-based model supported by the social franchise. Each water kiosk set up is entrusted to local entrepreneurs, who treat, produce safe water and deliver at their consumer’s home 20L bottles of water. This valuable service guarantees the water quality to the end-users and saves valuable time for women and children generally in charge of water collection.
