Development of water enterprises in rural Nepal
With financial support from Swiss Bluetec Bridge (www.swissbluetecbridge.ch) Trunz Water Systems and its local project partner Nexus Technology enable local entrepreneurs and communities to run three small-scale water treatment and distribution businesses in the districts Chitwan and Nawalparasi. The water enterprises supply safe, arsenic-free drinking water to surrounding households, schools, hospitals and local businesses at an affordable price. The innotivative business model has been expanded in Nepal and other countries by Weconnex, a Swiss based company dedicated to social business in developing countries/social impact investments.
