Arghyam, a non-profit foundation focusing on domestic water and sanitation, has published a document highlighting a water quality management (WQM) framework for rural areas. The framework lays out a phased and process-driven approach to WQM in rural areas and is based on work done by 12 prominent non-governmental organisations (NGOs) who have been working on water quality (WQ), from across the country. The phases that have been identified for a sustainable WQM programme are: Assessment of baseline situation; Participatory planning; Water quality monitoring; Implementation; and Operation & maintenance.
