[IYRPsupportgroup] Public consultation: Rural Water Supply Network (RWSN) Strategy 2024-2030

[Sean Furey]

Dear IYRP Colleagues

The Rural Water Supply Network (RWSN) is the global network for rural water professionals with over 15,000 members in 160 countries, and we have prepared a draft strategy for the network up to 2030. Rural water supply is often driven by domestic and international actors in the Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) development cooperation space who generally view it as a static public service for settled rural, small town and peri-urban communities. In this new strategy, we want make sure that pastoralist/nomadic peoples are not left out (again). So, I would really welcome your ideas and feedback on how we best connect and support those who working in this space. There are also tensions (particularly when it comes to water quality and treatment) when it comes to drinking water v. water for other uses, such as livestock watering. If anyone has any good research or resources on this topic then let me know!

The draft strategy is available in English and French here: https://rural-water-supply.net/en/resources/1174-rwsnstrategy-2030
And this is me talking through it: https://youtu.be/d3jZlQDo_-E?feature=shared

You can either contact me directly or post you ideas via this online form: https://forms.gle/4BjHw3U1BkhtU1ST8

Thanks!

Sean
