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.
