In July 2009, WaterPartners International merged with H2O Africa to form Water.org , co-founded by Matt Damon and Gary White.[5]
Approach [ edit ]
WaterPartners' approach to implementing water projects involves four key components:
forging partnerships with local partner organizations in the countries it serves
involving the community at each stage of the project
selecting technology appropriate to the local community and their particular situation
integrating all projects with health and hygiene education.
The organization conducts monitoring, evaluation, and original research programs. It has initiated third-party evaluations of its programs to determine how it is fulfilling its mission.[6]
WaterPartners' stated vision is to work towards providing safe drinking water to everyone in the world.[7] Currently, approximately one in six people on earth lack access to safe source of drinking water.[8] [9] More than two billion people lack access to basic sanitation.[10]
WaterCredit [ edit ]
WaterPartners projects were funded through grants , loans, or a combination of the two. Its loan program is called WaterCredit.[11] It uses the concept of microcredit to fund water sanitation projects.[12] [13]
WaterPartners received grants from organizations such as the PepsiCo Foundation,[14] The Michael and Susan Dell Foundation ,[15] and Open Square Foundation (previously called the Agora Foundation).[16]
