Welcome, bienvenue and bienvenido to Akvopedia!
Welcome to Akvopedia, the open water and sanitation resource that anyone can edit. We strive to improve water and sanitation projects through knowledge exchange on smart and affordable technical solutions and effective approaches. Akvopedia now contains 2,211 articles primarily in English, including some in French and Spanish. Akvopedia is hosted and managed by Akvo Foundation.

 Akvopedia Survey Results are in!
This past spring, we conducted a survey among Akvopedia users to better understand who is using the site, how they use it and why. This survey provided a sample to complement site metrics gathered by our web analytics system. You can read more about the thinking behind the survey here. The survey was available on Akvopedia for roughly six weeks and, during that time, we had a total of 544 responses.
