Asian Water Supplies Reaching The Urban Poor

The purpose of this book is to give stakeholders a point of reference and some tools with which they can move forward. In this way, it si hoped that the mistakes of the last 20 years will not be repeated. It should not be necessary for a new generation of water professionals to learn everything all over again. Instead, they should be able to take what has been learned up to now and move on. To help facilitate this process, this book was designed to create greater understanding and awarenenss of the issues and possible solutions among all stakeholders in the sector. The guide and soucebook will be useful for governments, utilities, consultants, development agencies, and nongovernment organization. The main finding of ADBs regional consultation in 2002 on water in aAsian Cities - The Role of Civil Society was the general lack of understanding and awareness of the sector among stakeholders. This book is expected to improve the situation. It is aimed at professionals in the sector, especially newly arrived professionals, who may not be aware of all the problems.
