The South African Sanitation Technology Enterprise Programme (SASTEP) is a national coordination programme implemented by the Water Research Commission and funded by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF). SASTEP aims to create a new sanitation industry through the development, demonstration and commercialisation of innovative sanitation technologies. The programme activities are aligned to the Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP) to address commercialisation, localisation and manufacturing by bringing on board commercial partners capable to provide industrial support base for the local and regional markets and disrupt where appropriate the current paradigm of water conveyance based infrastructure leading to a more water secure future. The programme is aligned to the Department of Trade & Industry (DTI) Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP) strategy to address commercialisation, localisation and manufacturing by bringing on board capable commercial partners to provide an industrial support base for the local and regional markets. The intent of the programme is to support and accelerate the application and uptake of the new sanitation technologies through demonstration, testing and science-based improvements towards localisation and industrialisation.
