Topic 3. Smart, Secure and Adaptive Water Infrastructures for Sustainable Water Management

CIDP is interested in joining the Water4All project because sustainable and equitable water management is closely linked to the organization’s work on community resilience, WASH, climate change adaptation, livelihoods, disaster risk reduction and inclusive local development in Sindh, Pakistan.
