Investing in equitable and sustainable solutions for a post-2015 worldWater, Land and Ecosystems (WLE)
Presentation by Alain Vidal (CGIAR Consortium) and Nicoline de Haan (WLE) at Stockholm World Water Week 2014.Hydroharvest (190)
The HydroHarvest team is seeking funding to install a rainwater harvesting system at the Maranyundo school in Rwanda. The system would provide clean water to 200 students and staff. It would pay for itself in under 3 years through savings from not purchasing water and firewood. It would also provide health benefits and training for the students. If successful, the model could be expanded to other schools in Rwanda run by the Benebikira sisters organization.

AfricaSan 2011, Rwanda: Behaviour change session - Julia Rosenbaum, WASHplus ...SHARE (Sanitation and Hygiene Applied Research for Equity)
The document discusses hygiene and sanitation improvement efforts in the Amhara region of Ethiopia using community-led total sanitation approaches. A mix of community-led and household innovations were applied to improve WASH practices and reduce diarrheal disease while strengthening health systems. The program was embedded in Ethiopia's national hygiene and sanitation strategy and health extension program and emphasized community participation, behavior change techniques like shame walks, and capacity building of local cadres. Evaluation found improvements in sanitation access and handwashing knowledge from baseline to endline surveys.Self-supply acceleration in Ethiopia
This document discusses self-supply acceleration programs in Ethiopia that aim to improve water access through user investment at the household level. It explains that self-supply involves households developing their own water sources using rope pumps or motorized pumps to climb the "self-supply ladder" beyond unprotected sources. Effective self-supply acceleration requires financing options, creating demand, ensuring supply chains, and an enabling policy environment. Data shows that self-supply programs leverage much more private funding per dollar of public funding than traditional community water programs. However, such decentralized approaches also require addressing challenges like competition over water sources and long-term sustainability.
Toronto Food Strategy
The Toronto Food Strategy aims to foster a healthy and sustainable food system in the city. It takes a multi-pronged approach, including building networks among stakeholders, leveraging resources, and using both top-down and bottom-up strategies for change. One focus is improving food access in low-income neighborhoods through initiatives like mobile good food markets, working with corner stores to offer healthier options, and skills training programs. The strategy also explores policies around access to land and infrastructure to better support local food production and distribution.
10 years of research for development through engagement with the rural poor
10 years of research for development through engagement with the rural poorInternational Water Management Institute (IWMI)
Through 10 years of research across multiple river basins in Africa and Asia, the Challenge Program on Water and Food analyzed water, food, and poverty issues affecting 1.5 billion people living on less than $1.25 per day. The program addressed these complex problems through basin-focused research that developed sustainable solutions for water management, agricultural intensification, and benefit sharing through stakeholder engagement. Key outcomes included identifying cropping systems and land uses for the Mekong basin that increased benefits for communities while allowing for hydropower development, and institutional and technical innovations in the Ganges basin that supported diversified and resilient agricultural systems.Safe Water World (210)
1) Over 1.8 million people, mostly children under 5, die each year from water-borne diseases due to a lack of access to clean water and proper testing methods. Communities rely on contaminated water sources like open wells.
2) Current water testing methods are too complicated, expensive, and require resources like electricity that are unavailable in remote areas. Safe Water World is developing affordable, easy-to-use microbial water testing kits for use in field settings.
3) The kits contain tests to detect the presence of bacteria and allow for easy, on-site testing without the need for incubation or expensive equipment. This will empower communities to identify contaminated water sources and seek improvements to access clean water.
Group 4 family water project
The Family Water Project aims to provide clean drinking water to 21,000 families in Ethiopia over 5 years through a cooperative program. Members will pay monthly dues of 25 cents to purchase Hippo water rollers, generating over $5,000 monthly for infrastructure. This will provide water to an estimated 168,000 people. The program will identify and refer malnourished children to treatment, improve hygiene practices, and develop community water storage using profits. The goal is to sustainably improve access to clean water and reduce malnutrition indirectly through improved health, agriculture, and economic opportunities.
Beyond Philanthropy: Community Nature Based Enterprises as a Basis for Wildli...
1) 70% of Kenya's wildlife lives outside protected areas, causing human-wildlife conflict. Protected areas alone cannot sustain wildlife populations.
2) Nature-based enterprises, if supported, hold potential for wealth creation, economic growth, and employment while also supporting wildlife conservation goals.
3) The Kenya Wildlife Service has established interventions like rapid response teams, translocations, and education programs to address human-wildlife conflict. It also supports nature-based enterprises and economic opportunities through its Community Enterprise Department to incentivize conservation on community lands.

Institutional structures for productive use of agricultural waterInternational Water Management Institute (IWMI)
The document discusses options for improving agricultural water management in Cambodia. It notes that the current Public Irrigation Management Transfer (PIMT) approach is not working well due to issues like poor cost recovery and inefficient water delivery. Several options are discussed, including trying to fix the current system, adopting new models of irrigation management, and moving beyond water to add value through other agricultural services. Successful management requires addressing factors beyond just water delivery, like supporting farmers' productive use of water. Intermediate institutions and private sector providers may help coordinate irrigation at appropriate scales and provide additional services to farmers.Safe Water Garden / WaSH Info-deck 5 Aug 2021

It discusses UVM's Regional Center of Expertise (RCE) Greater Burlington, the scholarship of engagement work done through UVM courses, and community partners like Shelburne Farms and the Intervale Center. It summarizes some of the Intervale Center's key programs that support local agriculture and food systems work.
Proposal for sustainable food system to benefit under nourished school childr...
GoodtoChina is a social enterprise that designs solutions for social innovation and sustainability that encourage a paradigm shift from non-sustainable behavior towards sustainable and healthy behavior. We tackle urban challenges by creating opportunities for change through the development of contemporary systems and environments and by providing tools and education to influence a change in people behavior: as a consequence of these interventions we help to propel new opportunities for social and environmental reform and economic revenue through changes in demand and supply to traditional systems.
Each strategy and design solution addresses the 3 pillars of sustainability, namely, social, environmental and economic.
Our umbrella goal is to create environments whereby people, business and environment are healthier and happier.
The impact from the systems we propose can be measured across both tangible and non-tangible elements that include: happiness, pollution, energy usage, renewable energy, food sources, renewable materials & construction.
We do this through a variety of products and services:
Sky Farms is one of our products and services
Sky farms: An innovative platform of experiential urban farming which encourages sustainable and healthy living, supports a paradigm shift from the conventional food model, which is rural, disconnected and monoculture to an alternative contemporary approach which is urban, connected and distributed.
Sky farms are designed to support social innovation and sustainability: they connect and engage communities, educate and enable sharing in collaborative socially desirable environments
Impact: positively impact the psychology and quality of life of urban residents by repurposing unused spaces and so encourage a re-distribution of the food chain, increase knowledge of how to grow local organic food, increase green space in the city that will help to reduce hot island city effect and reduce energy usage for cooling and heating,

EFN WASH Project Update_as per 5.8.2014
Misery by floods: Poor and blocked drainage channels greatly contribute to frequent floods in Namuwongo community located next to Nakivubo main channel. During flooding many children loose lives and others get their scholastics materials destroyed. Hope for Children upgraded drainage systems in Namuwongo as part of commitment to contribute to development of child friendly environment.
Mountains of garbage, whose responsibility? Huge piles of garbage accumulated in Namuwongo, especially along Port Bell railway line. As these garbage piles are not healthy for the population and children being the most vulnerable, Hope for Children with support from partners managed to clear hundreds of tonnes of these garbage.
