Project Overview

This project aims to improve access to clean drinking water and environmental sanitation for marginalized urban communities in Peshawar, Quetta, and Karachi. It targets informal settlements and institutions (schools and healthcare facilities) where water scarcity, contamination, and infrastructure breakdowns significantly impact public health, especially among women, children, and people with disabilities. The project employs technical and social feasibility assessments to identify locally appropriate, affordable, and sustainable technologies, primarily through Water filtration plants, to provide safe drinking water. Community engagement involves forming Water User Committees (WUCs), hygiene promotion sessions, and behavior change campaigns. Operation and maintenance (O&M) systems are developed with community and institutional involvement to ensure sustainability. The project also emphasizes knowledge documentation and sharing for adaptation and wider replication.
