Abstract | This book is for those who are in charge of facilitating community management of water supplies. It provides guidelines and food for thought for managers and decision-makers who want to improve the performance of their organisation and make sure that water supply services in place keep working. It answers such questions as: what kind of support do communities require? How can this support be provided? What are the organisational conditions we need to put in place? What tools can we use? Who should be involved? What does it demand from support organisations and the communities? In other words: what does it take to support community management of water supplies. |
