Today we are going online with an additional offering on betterplace.org: a knowledge portal on water. Over the past 3 months, the betterplace lab team, headed by Angela Ullrich as project manager and supported by a great crew contributors, has assembled relevant water knowhow for users of the betterplace plattform.

Our portal addresses donors and project supporters as well as project managers: As donor you can find out about the main developmental challenges in the realm of water and which solutions have proved to be especially promising. We aim to give you some criteria based on which you can make an informed choice. Criteria and points of discussion which you may also want to use to engage project managers on betterplace directly. For project managers on betterplace, we hope to add to your knowledge about the field you are working in by presenting good practice case studies and pointing to promising technological innovations, which help you to improve your work - and thus win more supporters.

The water portal focuses in three topics:

Drinking water & sanitation

Water & Food

Water & the Environment

We are curious about your feedback: check out what we have assembles and let us know, what you like as well as where you see room for improvement.
