At PRACTICA Foundation we work on the development and commercial application of low-cost Water, Energy and Sanitation technologies in Africa and Asia. We train local enterprises to manufacture and operate innovative technologies that can improve the livelihoods of poor people in rural areas. High potential technologies are selected and/or developed based on socio-economic and geological assessments of the local context. We are convinced that sustainability can best be achieved if technologies form the income source of a local company. PRACTICA supports those companies by teaching them the necessary technical and business skills and providing them with a network of suppliers, customers and supporting organisations.
