Action Against Hunger (AAH) in collaboration with local partners, is completing a project that started in February 2023, aimed at improving access to safe drinking water in Niger (AAH Spain) and Somalia (AAH US). This initiative, titled “Adopting an Innovative Solution for Household Water Treatment in Niger and Somalia,” is supported by a grant from ELRHA’s Humanitarian Innovation Fund (HIF).
As part of the project “Adopting an Innovative Solution for Household Water Treatment in Niger and Somalia,” an external consultant will be engaged to conduct a comprehensive cost-effectiveness study and acceptability analysis of the Faircap Family filter. This task is crucial to evaluate the viability and sustainability of the filter as a long-term solution for improving access to safe drinking water in the targeted regions.
The primary objective of this task is to assess the economic and practical feasibility of the Faircap Family filter in comparison to existing water treatment methods, such as chlorination products. The study aims to provide actionable insights into the cost-efficiency, user acceptance, and overall effectiveness of the filter in real-world humanitarian settings.
