“IRIBA”

Means “Natural source of fresh and clean water” in Kinyarwanda

Why We Exist:

700 million Africans lack access to safe drinking water, leading to 80% of illnesses linked to poor water and sanitation conditions. At IRIBA Water Group, we believe no one should suffer or die due to the lack of something as basic and essential as safe water. Access to clean water is a fundamental human right, and the time to act is NOW. Join us in our mission to ensure safe drinking water for all, transforming health outcomes and building resilient communities across Africa.

Founded in 2017, IRIBA Water Group is committed to transforming lives through sustainable water solutions. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to innovate and implement solutions that address water scarcity and promote socio-economic development across Africa.
