The supply of reliable and safe water is a key challenge for developing countries, particularly India. Community management has long been the declared model for rural water supply and is recognised to be critical for its implementation and success. Based on 20 detailed successful case studies from across India, this book outlines future rural water supply approaches for all lower-income countries as they start to follow India on the economic growth (and subsequent service levels) transition. The case studies cover state-level wealth varying from US$2,600 to US$10,000 GDP per person and a mix of gravity flow, single village and multi-village groundwater and surface water schemes. The research reported covers 17 states and surveys of 2,400 households. Together, they provide a spread of cases directly relevant to policy-makers in lower-income economies planning to upgrade the quality and sustainability of rural water supply to meet the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in the context of economic growth.

Richard Carter weaves together the myriad of factors that need to come together to make rural water supply truly available to everyone. He concludes that ultimately, systemic change to the global web of injustice that divides this world into rich and poor may be the only way to address the underlying problem.

Foreword by Lewis T. Preston, President, the World Bank (1991-1995). Sets out World Bank policy on disclosure of information. The policy applies to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA). This useful booklet presents the World Bank's policy on disclosure of information and describes the materials available to the public. The Bank's experience in implementing effective and sustainable development programs clearly indicates that the quality of many operations benefits when staff and government officials consult and share information with program participants. This experience inspired the Bank to launch a major review of its disclosure policy in 1993. The review resulted in a recommendation to make Bank information more publicly available. The revised policy expands the range of documents subject to release and facilitates public access to them. A significant outcome was the Bank's establishment of a Public Information Center through which much of the material covered by the revised policy is available.

The papers in this volume examine the links between gender, time use, and poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa. They contribute to a broader definition of poverty to include "time poverty," and to a broader definition of work to include household work. The papers present a conceptual framework linking both market and household work, review some of the available literature and surveys on time use in Africa, and use tools and approaches drawn from analysis of consumption-based poverty to develop the concept of a time poverty line and to examine linkages between time poverty, consumption poverty, and ot.
