Clean Water & Sanitation For All

Empowering Maldivian communities through sustainable water, sanitation, and hygiene solutions. Together, we’re building a healthier, more resilient future for our islands.

About Us

Watercare a Maldivian Social Enterprise founded in 2007 by Mr. Mohamed Rasheed (Bari) and registered (Reg. No.: T2007/54/20) at the Ministry of Home Affairs. The organization is active in implementing water awareness programs, assisting implementation of water and sanitation projects in the nation by empowering the community to participate effectively in its planning, development and monitoring Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) projects as well as undertaking research and promoting innovation in the water sector.

Watercare is currently leading civil society organization (CSO) coordinating CSO activities for establishment of SDG6 accountability mechanism in the Maldives. However, our efforts are constrained due to lack of space for CSO’s in the country.

By being a member of Sanitation & Water for All (SWA), Watercare can coordinate with local WASH stakeholders to increase general awareness on key issues, finalization, and implementation of CSO SDG6 strategic plan drafted in 2018. Further we can add value to the partnership by using the resources from SWA to develop and strengthen CSO accountability mechanisms to follow up on government commitments for SDG6 and SACOSAN.
