organisation
The International Rainwater Harvesting Alliance is an Swiss NGO aiming to promote and build actors’ capacities in rainwater management.
Our action is to create a better rainwater management for all concerned local authorities, water services, but also river basin committees or communiies themselves via the operation and implementation of concrete projects.
The IRHA develops initiatives with partners who structure the organisation’s strategy.
