Project: sWASH & grow (From dread to bread in humanitarian crisis)
The purpose of the project is to improve the conditions for innovators (sellers) to be able to meet relief organizations’ (buyers’) demands, enabling sustainable and circular innovations to reach vulnerable populations (users) in humanitarian crises and off-grid environments. Here are considerable weaknesses in the innovation system of today. The project will - through testbeds in the field in cooperation with buyers and users - test innovative sustainable solutions and from this develop tools for development, scaling and export.

Project description
Purpose and goal
The purpose of the project is to improve the conditions for innovators (sellers) to be able to meet relief organizations’ (buyers’) demands, enabling sustainable and circular innovations to reach vulnerable populations (users) in humanitarian crises and off-grid environments. Here are considerable weaknesses in the innovation system of today. The project will - through testbeds in the field in cooperation with buyers and users - test innovative sustainable solutions and from this develop tools for development, scaling and export.
Expected results and effects
The results of the project have effects on a number of Global Sustainability Goals by giving innovators and buyers better decision support tools for developing and implementing innovative sustainable, circular and inclusive solutions for those in need in crisis or off-grid. The project´s results include an AI tool for decision support, a university course module, mapping of success factors for off-grid solutions, methods and platforms for validation, upscaling and export, as well as the further development of five Swedish innovative water and sanitation solutions.
Planned approach and implementation
The project is implemented in collaboration with experts and customers from the public, private, academic and NGO sectors. The project is divided into six work packages which include investigating and mapping success factors for off-grid solutions, developing tools for testing, validation and market introduction, developing five Swedish innovative water and sanitation solutions and developing methods and platforms for upscaling. and exports. All results are based on case studies in test and demo beds in Sweden, Bolivia, Lebanon, South Africa and Rwanda.
