Approaches under construction

THIS IS NOT THE ACTUAL APPROACHES PAGE

This page is for construction purposes only. You can find the actual page at Portal:Approaches

The Approaches portal contains information on product development, service delivery, finance, promotion, and support systems. This is a very complex and rich field, and at this moment Akvopedia has only a limited number of articles in this Portal, although the number is growing. We need your help! We are now working on a Toolbox toolbox for local governments.

To give some indication as to the status, there are three types of icons. Subjects which have a picture icon are well under way. Subjects with an 'under development' icon are rudimentary, but some content is there. Subjects with an 'Empty' logo are still completely empty, apart from the article template.

  • The categories in this portal, as well as most of the subjects, are adapted from the “Landscaping of Approaches to Support Service Provision of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene” (2006) prepared by Cranfield University, AguaConsult and the IRC International Water and Sanitation Centre. 1
  • An extra column "Product / Service development" was added, to reflect the importance of starting with the definition of the intended product / service.
