RWSN Newsletter February 2009

Who cares about operation & maintenance?

This edition of the Rural Water Supply (RWSN) newsletter focuses attention on the operation and maintenance of rural water supplies.  Much is talked about targets for new construction, but very little attention is given to operation and maintenance.  Numerous organisations will pay to improve service delivery but the responsibility for maintenance is passed on under-resourced local Governments or unsupported communities.  As a consequence improved rural water supplies are in danger of going out of service just as fast as new supplies are being constructed.  The result is obvious, and if we continue like this the future is bleak.  As part of the Sustainable Rural Water Supplies Flagship of RWSN, we highlight this issue.  

As ever, we also provide you with the latest updates from the four RWSN flagships.  Happy reading!
