Toilet Board Coalition: Building the Sanitation Economy
Toilet Board Coalition is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to building the Sanitation Economy. This new marketplace for innovation, entrepreneurship, and investment aims to address one of the world's most pressing challenges – access to safe and sustainable sanitation.
The Toilet Board Coalition was founded in 2014 by a group of leading companies, investors, and sanitation experts who recognized the urgent need for innovative solutions to improve global sanitation. The coalition brings together a diverse range of stakeholders from across sectors and industries to collaborate on developing new business models, technologies, and partnerships that can drive progress towards universal access to safe sanitation.
The Sanitation Economy is an emerging market opportunity that has the potential to transform how we think about sanitation. Rather than viewing it as a problem or burden, this approach sees it as an opportunity for economic growth and development. By leveraging innovative technologies and business models, we can create new products and services that meet the needs of underserved communities while also generating economic value.
One key area of focus for Toilet Board Coalition is circular economy approaches to waste management. By treating human waste as a valuable resource rather than a liability, we can create new revenue streams while also reducing environmental impact. This includes innovations such as converting waste into fertilizer or energy through anaerobic digestion.
Another important aspect of our work is supporting entrepreneurs who are developing innovative solutions in the sanitation sector. Through our accelerator program – Toilet Accelerator – we provide mentorship, funding opportunities, and access to networks that can help these startups scale their impact.
Toilet Board Coalition also works closely with investors who are interested in supporting sustainable sanitation initiatives. We provide guidance on investment opportunities in this space while also advocating for increased funding from governments and other sources.
Overall, Toilet Board Coalition's mission is clear: To build a more sustainable future by creating economic opportunities around safe sanitation practices worldwide. Our work has already made significant strides towards this goal, but there is still much more to be done. By continuing to collaborate and innovate, we can create a world where everyone has access to safe and sustainable sanitation.
