Waterlines Journal
Waterlines is an international journal for researchers and academics, as well as practitioners and policy-makers interested in extending adequate water supply, sanitation and solid waste management to all in developing countries. Waterlines aims to bridge the gap between research and practice: we encourage papers written by researchers for the benefit of practice and those written by practitioners to inform the research. Waterlines considers the key challenges facing those in the water and sanitation sector – engineers, health professionals, community development workers, researchers, policy makers – and suggests how these issues may be tackled and resolved using affordable systems and with reference to wider policy frameworks.
The themes for Waterlines in 2011 are:
- April 2011: Water Safety Plans (copy deadline 1 December 2010)
