Akvo
http://www.akvo.org/
The open source for water and sanitation.
Akvo is an amazing project to transform the way water and sanitation
development is organised in the poorest parts of the world. If we do
our job well, it will become the definitive, Internet-based, global online
water and sanitation resource and collaborative platform.
A Wikipedia and eBay for water, rolled into one, it is backed by some
of the leading expert organizations in global water and sanitation development.
We have seed funding from a Dutch consortium committed to technology
innovation and the transformation of the water sector. A first fully functional release is launched at the World Water Forum 5, Istanbul, Turkey, in March 2009.
Today Akvo is
working to expand its network of supporters and partners. We'd love to get your support and are actively looking for partners to work with.
