Small water enterprises (SWEs) alleviates burdens by providing safe and accessible drinking water to communities, which allow women more time to pursue education and employment opportunities.
This paper presents a case study of 265 iJal Safe Water Stations in India that use IoT-based parametric monitoring systems to raise automatic alarms and send regular alerts, which help facilitate both local operations and remote diagnostics conducted by a service entity to identify service and spare-parts requirements on a timely basis.
This report describes how Safe Water Enterprises can provide safe water securely and affordably to water stressed cities that are coping with dense populations due to increased migration and urbanization.
This report recommends small water enterprises (SWEs) in city planning for the creation of resilient cities. It also highlights the benefits and potential of expanding the SWE category in the urban environment.
Safe Water Network (SWN) is continuing our work in India to enhance water quality at our iJal Stations. Our goal when working with UL is to refine and standardize a Station Assessment Framework.
This Report focuses on the policy and enabling environment for safe/small water enterprises (SWEs) for the urban poor in India.
This report puts forth a framework and policy guidelines to help achieve "Har Ghar Jal" (water for every home) by 2030, and address emerging issues by shifting the country's heavy dependency on groundwater sources to surface water, improving service delivery standards, and encouraging a paradigm shift towards metered, household piped water connections for all.
This assessment of drinking water provision to the urban poor in the four cities of Visakhapatnam, Hyderabad, New Delhi, and Mumbai has been conducted as a part of a partnership between Safe Water Network and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), entitled Urban Small Water Enterprises under the USAID Urban Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Alliance program.
