The purpose of our work is to improve water & sanitation conditions, and our staging point is Jakarta’s slum communities.

Watsan Action’s mission is to strategically advise on appropriate technologies and approaches, financial sustainability, and streamline communications to improve water & sanitation conditions through the activities of Yayasan Rirta Lestari.
