This booklet on water, like its counterpart Smart Sanitation Solutions, gives examples of innovations such as the use of sunlight to purify water, effective low-cost water filters, low-cost drip irrigation and locally produced hand pumps that are five time cheaper than imported pumps. By using these technologies, poor rural families can double or even triple their annual income. The technologies described are a source of inspiration.
