Reaching the Unreached

Challenges for the 21st century

A selection of papers from the 22nd WEDC conference, aiming to find ideas and techniques which will aid fieldworkers in planning, operating and maintaining water and sanitation to 'reach the unreached'. Covering an extensive range of topics, including management, people and health, and emergency situations, the book adopts a multi-directional approach to tackle this challenging task.
