Connecting Communities to Infrastructure Services


































Globally, a third of urban residents live in slum conditions; many of them live without basic access to water, sanitation, electricity, or other basic services. Thousands of commercial, civic, and government organizations are working to provision services, but most don’t have access to the information or resources to work effectively.

Kawsay blends data collection methods to produce accurate and relevant information which informs infrastructure provision. Our service aggregates data from government agencies, satellites, ground sensors, and field surveys along with learning algorithms to create a comprehensive understanding of current conditions in informal settlements.
