Highlights from the Workshop Findings
Community Management of improved water supplies is new and different
Community management builds on long experience of community participation, but goes much further. It puts people in charge of their own water systems in a flexible partnership with supporting agencies. It means fresh challenges and fresh opportunities for both communities and agencies, and a new relationship between them.
