Drinkwell and Folia Water are two innovative social enterprises in Bangladesh which not only bring commercial approaches to their social initiatives but also reflect creativity in aligning their business with the SDG 6. Drinkwell uses the public-private partnership model to serve the purpose of providing water services to the urban population. The company has partnered with Dhaka Water Supply and Sewerage Authority to make Dhaka the first megacity to provide a legal access to safe water for all by establishing Water ATM systems.
Folia Water’s value proposition involves the distribution of silver-infused filter papers that cost as low as Tk 30 and thus provide the opportunity to the low-income community to have filtered water within an affordable range.
