South Africa is one of Africa’s most influential countries, especially across the southern region.

In 2012, the Water Research Commission – a group researching low-cost technologies for water, sanitation and hygiene in South Africa – offered to host us, and provided a central office in Pretoria.

This office builds strong partnerships with the South African Government, other governments, and influential organisations across the region. We work together to make clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene normal for everyone in the entire south of the African continent.

Without all three, people can’t live dignified, healthy lives – but with these essentials, they can unlock their potential, break free from poverty, and change their lives for good.
