Title | Application of the gravity-driven membrane (GDM) technology for supplying sustainable drinking water to rural communities |
---|---|
ContextCambodia has limited access to high water quality and hygiene. Although there has been an improvement in urban areas, most rural areas still have difficulties in water and sanitation access. Sufficient supply of safe water (including drink water) is crucial for rural people and would enable them to adapt to climate change, particularly in the prolonged drought situation that have occurred in Cambodia. Safe drinking water supply was one of the prioritized concerns in the National Adaptation Programme of Action to Climate Change (NAPA). Among 20 prioritized NAPA projects, ‘Safer water supply for rural communities’ was included in which wells/ponds were constructed in selected areas, and locally made water filters were provided by non-governmental organizations (NGOs). |
