WHO's
International Network to Promote Household Water Treatment
and Safe Storage
Household water treatment and safe storage can lead to
dramatic improvements in drinking water quality and reductions
in diarrhoeal disease. Therefore, WHO established a network
to promote household water treatment and safe storage.
This network supports coordinated action through household
water treatment to accelerate health gains to those lacking
access to safe drinking water.

The
Water School
For several years, the team at the water SCH2OOL has worked
in Uganda in east central Africa, to perfect a methodology of
sustainable water purification that combines health education
with training in the use of SODIS. The Water SCH2OOL is addressing
the apalling drinking water situation by expanding a successful
empowerment program to the rest of Uganda and other parts of
the world. Trained personnel are now in place to disseminate
the program in Uganda beginning summer, 2007 and Kenya in January
2008.
