Sweetwater's 4 Step Solution

We establish communication with local leaders – native, expat, or both – who are influential members of their community and motivated to develop clean water strategies that utilize local sustainable resources.

Working closely with local leaders, we identify obstacles to clean water access, propose solutions, and design research and experiments to test the efficacy and sustainability of the proposed strategies.

We conduct research and experiments in situ and at Sweetwater’s facility. Where possible, we attempt to mimic the ecological context and type of pollution we are trying to mitigate.

We report the results of our research first to the community leaders who initiated the research and then to Sweetwater’s network and the broader scientific community.
