At iDE, we work with farmers and aspiring entrepreneurs living in poor rural areas all over the world. With them, we invest in what’s possible. We empower them to develop their land, create new business and establish market-based economies. We help them to discover, develop, and produce their own technologies and find smarter solutions. Together, we cultivate communities through improved access to water for health and agriculture. Our productive water solutions create and increase both food production and incomes. And with innovative drinking water and sanitation technologies, we give rural households the basis for healthier and more dignified livelihoods. iDE empowers individuals to create a better future.
