    Description
    Description

    Founded in 2015, the Toilet Board Coalition accelerates business solutions to the global sanitation crisis. The Coalition facilitates vital partnerships between small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), corporates, NGOs, investors and governments who share a commitment to achieve access to sanitation and hygiene for all by 2030 (SDG 6.2). Through its world-renowned Accelerator, the Coalition provides business model design, corporate mentorship and access to investment to Sanitation Economy entrepreneurs serving low-income markets. To date, the Coalition has graduated 58 SMEs, impacting more than 2.4 million people daily and unlocking US$22 million in finance. Our 80+ Members’ diverse approach to sanitation proudly leads to essential innovation in toilet design, circular recovery of biological resources, and smart digital technologies to ensure safe and sustainable sanitation for all. The Toilet Board Coalition and its work is made possible by the generous support of its Membership.

    The Accelerator is a 12-month programme matching entrepreneurs with global business leaders and investors, turning the right ideas into successful and sustainable businesses. Currently, in its eight-year, the programme accelerates Sanitation Economy businesses through business model design, corporate mentorship, access to investment.

    The Toilet Board Coalition is governed by its Steering Committee, and guided by its Partnership, Cohort and Investor Councils.

    Expected Impact

    The Toilet Board Coalitions 2030 strategy is set to impact 1 billion lives by 2030 with access to safely managed sanitation products and services, in the process empowering gender equality, economic development, sustainable agriculture, biodiversity and a water secure world. We will do this by accelerating 1000 thriving sanitation economy businesses and unlocking $2bn of investment and $1bn of additional economic value into the sanitation economy.
