In most cities over 75% of the urban poor obtain domestic water from a range of small-scale independent providers (SWEs) rather than direct from main utility service. Much research has contributed to a stereotype of water vendors as exploiters of the poor. There is a growing recognition however, that the pace of urbanisation is outstripping the capacity of water utilities to service even the existing customers. Therefore, SWEs may be one of the few realistic options for water delivery for some time to come. http://www.lboro.ac.uk/departments/cv/wedc/projects/batw/ |
