SAFE WATER FOR ALL

Ian Burton

Natural Resources Forum, 1977, vol. 1, issue 2, 95-110

Abstract: The supply of safe water is both a necessary condition for human wellbeing and a significant contribution to national production. In reviewing the progress to date, the author finds room for optimism but not complacency. He discusses the elements of success and failure of rural water supply programmes, highlighting the interface which must exist between national planners and local communities. He also draws attention to action needed from governments and international organizations.
