In the years the CDC has been working with Safe Water System programs, we have seen considerable and growing interest in program establishment from one particular sector: small, local NGOs or faith-based groups that have an established relationship with a particular community or small groups of communities, and would like to provide safe water within that community/ies. We have found that the scope of our original Handbook is slightly broad for this sector, and that a document specific for community-based projects is needed.
We are happy to announce that our Safe Water for the Community: A Guide for Establishing a Community-Based SWS Program manual is now available. Please email safewater@cdc.gov if you would like a hard copy of the manual with the accompanying CD of relevant information. |
