What happened
WOTA, a Japanese water innovation company, is collaborating with communities in Antigua and Barbuda to regenerate water. This initiative is supported by the Government of Japan through the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. The small-scale residential systems are designed to regenerate up to 97% of wastewater from kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry for everyday reuse.

Why it matters
The project aims to address water constraints that currently limit economic growth in the Caribbean islands. By regenerating and reusing water, the systems reduce the need for new freshwater and the volume of wastewater released into the environment.
