Water Portal.png
Akvopedia logo.png

The water portal illustrates a selection of smart water technologies. We are working on making this portal comprehensive and contain full explanations on how to implement these technologies, complete with lots of reference manuals and links.

For help with selecting the right water technologies below, try our new Water Compass! It is a decision support tool.
To help manage drought, using water resource technologies and other strategies: Resilient WASH systems in drought-prone areas.
