description: This book comprises forty papers from the 21st WEDC conference, held in Kampala in 1995, on the theme of sustainability of water and sanitation systems. Developing countries experience special difficulties in maintaining systems in full working order, so maintenance is a recurring topic. Other wide-ranging topics include the sustainable development of underground and surface water resources, and sustainable hygiene education to enable communities to derive long-term benefits from new or improved facilities.
