Abstract | This article points out that in the area of water resources development and environmental protection, women at present are more often the victims than beneficiaries. It is suggested that women should become more involved, particularly in the planning, design, operation and maintenance stages as well as in health education programmes. In this way water and sanitation projects could more effectively achieve the ultimate goals of more and safer water, resulting in better health. |
