The papers discuss how to contribute to the sustainability of effective international development and water management with a digest of lessons learned on local knowledge and capacity development. Authors expose recent research, strategies and policy positions. Water for a Changing World starts with an introduction and overview of the water resources and the water supply and sanitation sectors in developing countries and worldwide. Topics of these reviews are water security, environmental integrity, the newest earth system science technologies, integrated urban water management, and the global-local nexus of water governance. The second part presents positions on catalyzing and disseminating knowledge and capacity development in response to the current challenges and opportunities. It consists of a variety of papers on theory and analysis of capacity development, methods and case studies, and policy positions. The authors represent a diverse and representative group of prominent actors, practitioners and academics within the water, sanitation and development sectors. -- Contents: Background - Purpose and Structure of the Proceedings; Knowledge and Capacity Development (KCD) as Tool for Institutional Strengthening and Change; Symposium Conclusions and Recommendations: Water for a Changing World: Developing Local Knowledge and Capacity; A Sector Analysis - Water Security: What Does It Mean, What May It Imply?; Environmental Integrity of Freshwater Resources; Water for a Crowded Planet: an Emerging Global Challenge for Earth System Science and Technology; Challenges for Urban Water Supply and Sanitation in Developing Countries; Glocal Water Governance: Controversies and Choices; Knowledge and Capacity Development - Capacity and Capacity Development: Breaking Down the Concepts and Analyzing the Processes; Thinking Out of the Ordinary: Promoting Knowledge Generation and Research on Water; Challenges in Knowledge and Capacity Enhancement: A Southern Perspective; Role of Knowledge Generation at UNESCO-IHE: Past-present-future; Capacity Challenges on the Path Towards Water Security; Water Knowledge Networking: Partnering for Better Results; Enhancing Nations' Capacity: From Theory to Practice.

Baltimore & London, The John Hopkins University Press, 1976. 8vo. In the original printed wrappers. A very fine and clean copy. First printing of Saunders and Warford's landmark report on village water supply and its consequences on health and economy, which "became a benchmark for World Bank policy on rural water supply over th…e subsequent decade". (Cairncross , Domestic Water Supply in Rural Africa).It initiated a never before seen focus on the character and extent of the problems connected with water supply, sanitation and the relevant economics. Not only did it set the standard for the World Bank, to a large extent it also formed the UN-policy on the subject.
