Water Management

Organizers: Ford Foundation, Arghyam and Advanced Center for Water Resources Development and Management (ACWADAM)

Venue: To be decided

ACWADAM is a not-for-profit organization that aims to develop solutions to groundwater problems of today and tomorrow. It is a premier education and research institution and facilitates work on groundwater management through action research programmes and trainings.

She comes to Arghyam with a background in the corporate and not for profit sectors, both in India and abroad. She has a record of achievement in taking initiatives to scale in the financial and education sectors and  substantial experience as a coach and mentor.

The issues of climate change, water and energy are central to any attempt for bridging the gap between “developed” and “developing” nations. These three critical issues have thus far been addressed in isolation from one other, in countries like India.

The review included, but was not limited to urban hydrology, management of water supply infrastructure, water resources management, water quality management (WQM), groundwater management, technical and economic instruments for water demand management, technical and economic aspects of leakage reduction, environmental and economic aspects of wastewater treatment and reuse, storm water management

She found Twitter to be a useful place to conduct her research on issues of governance and institutions in watershed management programs in India and the U.S., because it enabled her to pick the resources she found useful without having to go through lots of articles and research papers.
