Resources / Integrated Pro-Poor Water and Waste Water Management in Small Towns Project

Summary

Integrated Pro-Poor Water and Waste Water Management in Small Towns, a UNESCAP (United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific) two years project, was completed in 2009 and assisted local governments and their civil society partners, including the poor, to develop integrated and participatory strategies for water and wastewater management. It collected and disseminated information on innovative and cost effective technologies and approaches in water and wastewater management that small towns can afford. Over 14 cases studies from seven different countries in Asia were documented.
