Networking and capacity building on water safety plans and small water supplies in Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia | Umweltbundesamt

To improve drinking-water quality, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends water safety plans (WSP) as the most effective way of ensuring continuous provision of safe drinking-water. To facilitate this process, WHO held a major subregional advocacy and capacity building event in June 2014 in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. To foster long-term uptake of WSPs, an advocacy report was published. Complementally, the WHO "road map" guide to support incremental country-level implementation of WSPs was made available in Russian. A WSP field guide was published in English and Russian. It provides a step-by-step introduction to the WSP approach.
