SWIM Mapping & WASH Collective Action Hotspots Map

New York, September 2025 – Botanical Water Technologies and the Pacific Institute have announced the launch of a new WASH Collective Action Hotspots Map, a dynamic global map designed to unite corporates, NGOs, and WASH4Work members in tackling water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) issues across the globe. This will be unveiled during Climate Week NYC.

Addressing a Fragmented Approach to Water Challenges

Over 2.3 billion people live in water-stressedcountries, yet solutions are often hampered by fragmented data, limitedvisibility, and difficulty connecting impactful projects, project sponsors and resourcesneeded to deliver results. This new map aims to solve this by:

• Visualizing WASH Collective Action Hotspots     at country and basin level
• Integrating overlays for NGOs, corporates, and     other stakeholders
• Highlighting shovel-ready WASH projects     for WASH4Work groups
• Provide additional value to existing     initiatives while complementing the Water Action Hub and Basin  Monitoring Platform

Strategic Collaboration

Developed and funded by Botanical Water Technologies, the tool isbeing rolled out in partnership with the Pacific Institute. Feedback fromparticipating corporates and NGOs will guide its continued development. BotanicalWater Technologies CEO Terry Paule notes, “We grow water, and now we’regrowing partnerships. This Map brings clarity to a complex system, aligningresources for meaningful impact.”

Building on Global Impact

The launch builds on Botanical Water Technologies’ innovation,which transforms evaporative condensate from food and agricultural processinginto plant-sourced drinking water. Recent examples include:

·        Microsoft in India – 60 million liters annually delivered to 16,000+ people

• Ingomar Packing in California – transforming tomato processing into a new     source of drinking water
• The Fujitsu collaboration – implementing blockchain-based PhiloX for     transparency

These projects demonstrate how innovativetechnologies, combined with trusted partnerships, can scale solutions acrossbasins, insights now embedded in the new Dynamic Map
