DROPSTONE Advisory Services

Dropstone

Independent advisory in water, geosciences and complex contexts

We transform difficult technical and institutional problems into evidence-based decisions – in Switzerland and internationally.

Two worlds. One expertise.

SWITZERLAND

Hydrogeology - Geothermal energy - Geophysics - Information management - Support to enviornmental authorities


We assist cantons, utility services and project owners in understanding and sustainably managing underground resources.

INTERNATIONAL

WASH - Humanitarian Affairs & Development - Project Evaluations - Feasibility Studies - Institutional Strategies - Governance


We support governments, national and local authorities, humanitarian organisations, development agencies and donors in fragile or crisis-affected contexts.

Why Dropstone?

Independence.  We are neither a subsidiary nor dependent on a single donor. Our analyses reflect the data, not a commercial relationship.

Dual grounding.  A team trained to Swiss scientific standards, operational in contexts where institutional structures are absent or fragile.

Results that get used.  Our deliverables are designed to be actionable: prioritised recommendations, language adapted for decision-makers, practical formats.
