A gift that matters

For Christmas 2012 Solvatten and Fair Unlimited offered a special corporate gift. The aim was to give others access to safe water, whilst being mindful of the scarcity of safe water in the world and of the value of the clean water we have in Sweden. The gift was a carafe manufactured from recycled materials by a Fair Trade company in Bolivia.

Thanks to Fair Unlimited for the initiative to market and sell this gift to Swedish Film (SF) and many other companies!

Prosales links corporate responsibility with sales competence

A challenge for all social innovations is finding the quickest route to financial sustainability. In the developing world one way to facilitate sales is by combining subsidies with micro-savings. The Swedish company Prosales was attracted by this solution and identified an opportunity to link their core activity - developing sales competence - with a Solvatten project which provides education and supports savings groups. 

This project enabled representatives from the Kenyan organization KOWLF to market and sell Solvatten through solidarity savings groups in Mwingi and Mombasa in Kenya. A Prosales representative met with the Kenyan sales team to exchange ideas on how to sell new groundbreaking technology. Thanks to Prosales, Solvatten now reaches hundreds of families in Kenya!

A UN Habitat collaboration for women in Nepal

In 2009 Solvatten units were distributed in Nepal for an implementation study in conjunction with UN-Habitat and ENPHO. The units were distributed to households, schools and community health centres and the users were trained by community mobilisers. Interviews with users were conducted for research and to increase understanding for future distribution of Solvatten in developing countries.

Thanks to Pond AB who supported this project, one of our very first sponsors!
