the sustainable Development Goals need bold young talents
Not all of them will be entrepreneurs, but every young talent has a role to play in solving the global water crisis.
Young people don’t need charity, they need chances. We train entrepreneurs to build businesses, escape unemployment, and hire locally.
No clean water, no toilets, no health. Every startup we back fights disease by fixing WASH basics.
670+ youth trained, 170+ intensively. Not theory, but skills and confidence to actually launch impact businesses.
42% of our participants are women. We fought hard to get here, and we won’t stop pushing for more.
1.2M+ people already reached with safe water, toilets, and hygiene. Our startups prove change is possible at scale.
We push startups out of informality. Clear contracts, fair jobs, real income. Decent work can actually start with youth-led businesses.
No sustainable city without water and sanitation. Our entrepreneurs are building the backbone of thriving communities.
Lack of safe water and waste treatment fuels GHG emissions. Our entrepreneurs are working hard to tackle these!
We connect young entrepreneurs across continents. One global network, many voices, join us!
We are an international non for profit organisation.
We spot and believe in young water talents before anyone else does. 75% of our entrepreneurs got their very first funding from us.
