Demanding Services

 Insisting will not produce better results.  Better results will only be achieved by learning and hard work.  Urban solutions are taught in universities worldwide.  The actual problems and successful solutions for the rural sector are not well understood.  We are working with Calvin College to change that paradigm.  Our ambition is to help government solve the difficult issues and provide successful working models of community water systems that speak for themselves.  Wherever possible we are building relationship and communications with government institutions.  We are concerned that often the population spends its energy critiquing rather than understanding the problem better and working on solutions.
