Sustainable Water Management At Dholera
Water resources at Dholera meet the current ecological, social, and economic needs without compromising the ability to meet those needs in the future and collaboratively seek resilient regional solutions that minimize risks. This process also means the economics stack up in matching supply and demand and the water delivery process is as efficient as possible. Dholera’s water sustainability aims at effective and holistic management of water resources.
Clean water helps keep kids in school, especially girls.
Less time collecting water means more time in class. Clean water and proper toilets at school mean teenage girls don’t have to stay home for a week out of every month.
Before Natalia’s village had a clean water tap, she often didn’t have time for school. Now, she goes to school every day and she’s the President of her local Water Committee. And she’s just getting started.

How do we tackle the water crisis?
We work with local experts and community members to find the best sustainable solution in each place where we work, whether it’s a well, a piped system, a BioSand Filter, or a system for harvesting rainwater. And with every water point we fund, our partners coordinate sanitation and hygiene training, and establish a local Water Committee to help keep water flowing for years to come.
