Workshop on Urban Rain-water Harvesting
The imminent water crisis is already beginning to impact on the community. This
workshop aims to impart Jal Saksharta, ie water literacy to members of the
community and empower them to implement Rain-water Harvesting for better water
security.
panIIT alumni and Maharashtra Nature Park will jointly conduct a 1 day workshop
on Sunday, 20 March'05 for the benefit of the environment-conscious public,
professionals, builders, property owners and managers, plumbing contractors,
students, ALM members - anyone, in short, who wants to harness rain-water. The
program content is below.
This interactive workshop will cover basic concepts of water management (jal
fundas) and provide street-level training to build a RwH system - right here in
the city of Mumbai - with a "Do-It-Yourself" approach. A panel
of domain experts will resolve specific issues and add technical inputs for the
participants. A mini-tutorial will be the concluding session of the workshop.
Subsequently, helpdesk support will be provided for participants targeting
monsoon '05.
