Website_SynthesisPublication_AddedValue

The Swiss Water and Sanitation Consortium is a mechanism of collaboration between eight Swiss NGOs (Non-governmental Organisations) - Caritas Switzerland, Fastenopfer, HEKS-EPER, HELVETAS Swiss Intercooperation, Solidar Suisse, Swissaid, Swiss Red Cross and Terre des hommes. It was created in 2011 to massively improve water and sanitation coverage and to trigger innovation and knowledge sharing. For two phases (2011-2013 and 2014-2017), it has been mainly financed by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC).
