Ensuring safe drinking water - successes in rural Nepal

Risk-based water safety interventions aim to ensure safe and reliable drinking water supply from source to consumer.

This study presents new evidence on the effectiveness of risk-based water safety interventions in rural areas by analysing their effect on water quality, infrastructure reliability and users’ perception.
