Helping communities through better sanitation

About Us

Ecoflo-Wash Global Sanitation is an organisation based in Australia that focuses on bringing education and wastewater sanitation solutions to countries and communities that face health-related problems because of poor sanitation.

Case Studies

Helping the island of Rambutso in PNG

The inhabitants of Rambutyo in Papua New Guinea previously had toilets directly over the ocean which was having health implications and causing obvious issues with the sanitation of the water they lived so closely to.Women and children had to walk quite a distance to go to the toilet and privacy was also an issue, so you can imagine the relief when a solution was found.

Ecoflo-Wash Global Sanitation has helped the villages of Rambutyo to install their first community composting toilets. This means that men, women and children will have a healthier standard of sanitation along with usable compost material after a few months of use.

Railaco Kraic Village in East Timor

With some of the lowest economic indicators in the world and where 50% of population is under the age of 18, education has been identified as key to prosperity for the area. Ensuring the retention of teachers in a remote area like Railaco Kraic is therefore incredibly important. However, a limited and unreliable supply of water and no electricity meant that facilities for teachers were very basic.

A squat toilet was replaced with a CM8 toilet from Clivus Multrum. The toilet does not use water and only requires minimal solar energy to power a small fan in the vent pipe. This installation has improved living standards for the teachers and students and continues to function well year after year.
