The WashMap Project
Chris Kelley (JHU WSE): ckelle13@jhu.edu
Billions of people make do with unsafe water and inadequate sanitation treatment; development projects that aim to fix this usually cost too much, achieve too little, and leave no public record. The WashMap Project is building a clearer picture of the remaining steps to universal water and sanitation, by mapping the world's knowledge of where these needs are unmet, who is working to meet them, and how.
The WashMap Project is building a basic market research service for rural water and sanitation development worldwide. Come get involved in a chance to do good business and business for good!
Innovate on,
