We would like to welcome Wetlands Work! Ltd. as new SuSanA partner organisation.

The following text is taken directly from their application form and was written by the partner organisation themselves.

Description:
WW! is a science-based wetland education and safe-water treatment program, registered as a socio-entrepreneurial business. We design, develop, research and implement simple systems to significantly improve water using ecologically engineered wetland-based mesocosms.

Activities in Sustainable Sanitation:
WW! designs new treatment systems for household and small group useage (schools, eco-lodges, etc.). Our designs are partic. appropriate for rural populations in lesser developed countries where replication is only possible w/ low cost, locally avail. materials, low maintenance, and consistent behavior change acceptance.

Expectations in the Partnership:
-To share and gain access to information concerning relevant issues in the WASH area.
-To connect with other researchers.
-To request feedback on our designs and research for wastewater treatment and child health monitoring.

Contribution to SuSanA:
We will share documents, our research findings and encourage others working at low-tech water treatment designs.
