Working with partners and people

This paper presents how Rural Water Supply Project has been working and involving partners and stakeholders in the water sector, so that there is ownership and collective responsibility for the water points being established. The paper also outlines the process which the project uses in working in each district, as it seeks to establish protected water points in rural villages. A consultative and participatory approach is used, starting from the district council and sub-committees, government departments, NGOs, other projects and sub-district staff through to the community level.
