Sanergy
Sanergy promotes the fundamental human right to sanitation in urban informal settlements by increasing access to affordable, hygienic sanitation facilities. Sanergy creates a sustainable sanitation value chain by building sanitation centers, deploying low-cost waste collection infrastructure, and converting this waste into fertilizer, electricity, and other high-margin products.
