| Building the capacities of the grassroots level organisations i.e. the Pani Samitis is a very crucial mandate for WASMO, so that they can perform their jobs/tasks in a desired manner, thus aiming to achieve the mission and objectives of the organisation. |
| |
| As work in each village progresses from the formation of the Pani Samiti to developing the Village Action Plan and from construction works to the O&M of the system developed, capacities of the Pani Samiti members as well as the people in the village need to be developed. To ensure this WASMO has developed in Gujarati simple and easy to comprehend manuals for understanding the community managed approach, and roles and responsibilities during each phase of the work. |
