Impacts of domestic water supply on gender and income: results from a participatory study in a drought-prone region in Gujarat, India
-
In this paper the value of an improved domestic water supply was investigated for economic development and gender relations in rural households in a drought-prone area. The extra income that women gain when the supply works and is used economically helps poor families to bridge the dry season. The findings support the view that rural poverty and the status of women would receive a significant boost if policy makers focused on
providing employment opportunities for women along with improved water supplies

Rural Sanitation Evaluation, Cambodia (2012)
-
The Adventist Development and Relief Agency Cambodia (ADRA) has been operating in the water and sanitation sector for 18 years. ADRA's program has always involved hardware coupled with software interventions. However, the biggest criticism has been the reach and impact of the program on the poorest within communities and whether ADRA should incorporate the principles and methods of Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) more directly into the way ADRA's program operates. Therefore, ADRA commissioned this study to identify lessons learned from other programs and how and if these lessons and methods of implementing latrine programs should be considered for integration into ADRA's program.
