Clean Team, IDEO.org
Clean Team is a Ghanaian social enterprise that that provides household toilets at a low monthly fee.
The Clean Team service is a comprehensive sanitation system, with a custom-designed stand-alone rental toilet (which is urine-diverting, or UDDT), as well as a waste-removal system that collects 2-3 times per week. Once at their central processing facility, they transport the waste to a treatment site. Clean Team now serves 5,000 people in Kumasi, Ghana, making lives cleaner and healthier. This business evolved from the Uniloo project: a collaborative venture between WSUP (Water and Sanitation for the Urban Poor), Unilever, and design consultants IDEO.
