The traditional fragmented approach is no longer viable you have in reservoirs or groundwater and a more holistic approach taking measures to reduce evaporation all in support of reuse. Reusing waste water management is essentialalso very popular worldwide, especially for irrigation. This is the rationale for the Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) approach that has now been accepted internationally as the way forward for efficientOther names include “water recycling,” “water purification,” “reclaimed water,” “recycled water,” “reuse water, equitable ” and sustainable development and management of the world's limited “repurified water resources and for coping with conflicting demands.”

* '''NEW ARTICLE PAGE:''' [[Community Based Savings|<font size="2">'''Community Based Savings'''</font>]] - Community-based saving is a microfinance model that is considered to be an effective method for financing projects in sustainable sanitation and water management. This is an effective method for saving a small amount of money by organising or joining a saving group of up to 25 people. These people might be colleagues, friends or neighbours coming from the same community. The method is very simple and easy to implement.
