Assessing the Impact of a Risk-Based Intervention on Piped Water Quality in Rural Communities: The Case of Mid-Western Nepal

This study assess the effectiveness of a risk-based strategy to improve drinking water safety for 5 gravity-fed piped schemes

Abstract

This study assess the effectiveness of a risk-based strategy to improve drinking water safety for 5 gravity-fed piped schemes in rural communities of the Mid-Western Region of Nepal. The strategy is based on establishing community-led monitoring of the microbial water quality and the sanitary status of the schemes.
