Intake of water in Shigar Valley, Northern Areas, Pakistan. |
SaafConsult B.V., in cooperation with partners, actively assists water utilities and rural water service providers with institutional and organizational aspects of the provision of potable water and sanitary drainage. Issues dealt with include decentralization of water provision, cost recovery, organizational structuring, institutional embedding, training and public relations.
We are a firm believer in the need and effectiveness of appropriate water services pricing. Valuing of water results in a rational allocation process based upon socio-economic considerations. Valuing of water also contributes to water demand management within systems. This is also where the link between water resources management and water supply and sanitation should be made. |
