India joined SWA in 2019.

Commitments by partners

Implement sustainable sanitation and wastewater treatment solutions across India, in partnership with governments, businesses and the civil society. The solutions are mainly implemented where the facilities are non-existent, and people don't have access to WaSH. Some examples are bio-toilets in schools, communities, low-income households, and worksites and fecal sludge treatment plants in rural and semi-urban/peri-urban communities. All solutions have resource recovery and circular economy, thereby providing treated water, biosolids and biogas.
