SaniTap's main program is designed to produce traceable, high-quality voluntary carbon credits that are generated through a 15-year greenhouse gas emissions reduction programme, that provides access to safe drinking water to hundreds of thousands of people. Using the Gold Standard Methodology for Emissions Reductions from Safe Water, voluntary carbon credits (VERs) will be generated. The sale of the VERs creates a long-term income stream that funds the rehabilitation of presently broken-down water points; and ensures their ongoing maintenance for at least fifteen years. Carbon credits produced under the Gold Standard are high-quality, third-party verified, validated emissions reductions. Complementary to drinking water provision, the SaniTap handwashing dispenser is an affordable and effective tool for handwashing with soap, in the absence of running water. This provides the 'hardware' solution that's been missing from the hygiene promotion projects. The product also enables refugees or households without running water at home to turn knowledge about handwashing into actual behaviour-change. This dramatically increases the health impact of WASH programs.
