OUR APPROACH

'WATER FOR PUBLIC GOOD’: ENABLING COMMUNITIES TO LEAD SUSTAINABLE WATER INITIATIVES

HUF's flagship platform “Water for Public Good” aims to catalyse effective water security solutions at scale, in partnership with government and mission-driven non-profit organizations. Our programmes across the country recognize the diversity of India’s water challenges across hydrogeological zones, river basins and agro-climatic conditions. This diversity mandates a range of solutions instead of a 'one-way at scale' approach. With communities and farmers at their core, our programmes have delivered solutions that can help them 'Know More' about their critical water resources, 'Save More' using scientific conservation methods, and 'Use Less' water in agriculture.

KEY PROGRAMME PILLARS

  • know more

    Know More

    Build water numeracy to quantify availability, budget, and allocate water resources
    through widescale deployment of low-cost technologies and tools (water budgets, simulation games, etc.)
  • know more

    SAVE MORE

    Equip communities to lead scientific water conservation efforts
    through GIS and digital tools for planning, measurement, monitoring, and governance
  • know more

    USE LESS

    Drive behaviour change for responsible water use in agriculture
    by demonstrating and encouraging adoption of sustainable irrigation practices, input use, soil health and crop choices
