Resource information
The book discusses basic concepts on key
topics to managing a small piped water system ideally for up
to 1,000 households. It presents tools that can be adapted
by Community-Based Water Organizations (CBOs) for use in
their operations, such as forms, checklists and procedural
guidelines. Illustrative examples have also been compiled
from the experiences of the district local governments,
support organizations and CBOs operating in East and West
Java, who participated in the Multi-Village Pooling (MVP)
Project. This toolkit seeks to compile a set of ready
resources for organizations supporting Indonesian CBOs and
CBOs themselves, which was not previously available despite
many years of rural water investment projects. The book
introduces fundamental concepts in an easy to-understand
way, so that a number of discussions have been simplified.
This will give users a basic understanding enough to seek
further resources or references or advice from experts,
which is encouraged.
