WUMP+3R implementing WUMP+3R for water harvesting to enable resilience and adaptation to climate The project will focus on developing effective water governance mechanisms through application of WUMP+3R approach to promote water conservation for domestic and productive uses. To further demonstrate the WUMP+3R approach, the project will focus on capacity building of NWA members and other stakeholders at national and local level to accelerate WASH. HELVETAS in collaboration with RAIN developed and implemented Recharge, Retention and Reuse based Water Use Master Planning (WUMP+3R) by mainstreaming 3R measures in WUMP. The WUMP + 3R is a promising approach to address these issues with a focus on participatory planning and management of water resources and integration of 3R to promote water conservation and harvesting. The approach also has been acknowledged as a replicable approach by NWA partners and other WASH stakeholders in Nepal. Capacity building of NWA members, WASH stakeholders at national level (government and nongovernment) and local level is realized to uptake WUMP+3R approach; hence accelerate WASH though capacity building, demonstration and advocacy. Moreover, functionality of water schemes is very poor in Nepal due to various reasons such as declining water source discharge, community ownership, lack of adequate local capacity etc. The project will implement the activities at two levels: local level and national level. The local level activities include capacity building of VDC/Municipality, WASH-CC members, users committee members, masons, local NGOs etc to uptake and implement WUMP+3R.  A review workshop on WUMP+3R, training on 3R technology will be organized. The project will support implementation of 3R schemes for the demonstration and also collaborate with other projects/ funds (eg HELVETAS) for implementation of drinking water and sanitation (hygiene) scheme. 
Similarly, at national level orientation on WUMP+3R will be provided to all NWA members and facilitator training will be organized for two partners (NEWAH and BSP). The project will also organize sharing workshop on WUMP+3R for WASH stakeholders (government and I/NGO). Documentation on functionality and sustainability will be carried out in one of WUMP+3R VDC where 3R schemes already implanted. The project will focus on developing effective water governance mechanisms through application of WUMP+3R approach to promote water conservation for domestic and productive uses. To further demonstrate the WUMP+3R approach, the project will focus on capacity building of NWA members and other stakeholders at national and local level to accelerate WASH. The project will collaborate with other stakeholders/funds for implementation of drinking water schemes and apply social marketing approach (with business model) for hygiene behavior. • Lobby and advocacy of WUMP+3R for wider replication
• Other agencies collaborate for the implementation of WASH schemes
• Collection of Operation & Maintenance Fund by users committee • Capacity enhancement at different levels:
National level: NWA members 
Local level: VDC, WASH-CC, local NGO, users committee
• Lobby with national level WASH stakeholders (government and I/NGO) • Development of WUMP+3R plan for sustainable development of water resources
• Implementation of 3R schemes
• Focus on rain water harvesting and source conservation and protection • Use of local resources, technology that can be adopted by the local capacity while implementation and then during operation and maintenance, 
• Less operation and maintenance cost • Inclusion of women and marginalized people in committee and beneficiaries,
• Capacity enhancement of local beneficiaries including awareness on environmental sanitation, hygiene, climate change and 3R measures The target group are people living in poverty in general and water hardship areas in particular. They are mostly from poor and disadvantaged groups. The proposed project targets 50 % of the beneficiaries from women. Moreover, it also targets capacity building of NWA members and local stakeholders such as VDC/Municipality, WASH-CC members, local partner NGO, and users committee members, local masons etc to uptake WUMP+3R approach. Financial sustainability : • Lobby and advocacy of WUMP+3R for wider replication

• Lobby with national level WASH stakeholders (government and I/NGO)
Environmental sustainability : • Development of WUMP+3R plan for sustainable development of water resources
• Implementation of 3R schemes
• Focus on rain water harvesting and source conservation and protection
Technical sustainability : • Use of local resources, technology that can be adopted by the local capacity while implementation and then during operation and maintenance, 
• Less operation and maintenance cost
Social sustainability : • Inclusion of women and marginalized people in committee and beneficiaries,
• Capacity enhancement of local beneficiaries including awareness on environmental sanitation, hygiene, climate change and 3R measures The access to improved drinking water sources has increased for 300 people Campaigns on hygiene and sanitation implemented for 300 people 3R technologies implemented for demonstration and piloting WASH-CC members and community people trained on WUMP+3R approach and 3R technologies 8 NWA partners trained and oriented on environmental sustainability and WUMP+3R approach 9 CAP The project will focus on developing effective water governance mechanisms through application of WUMP+3R approach to promote water conservation for domestic and productive uses. To further demonstrate the WUMP+3R approach, the project will focus on capacity building of NWA members and other stakeholders at national and local level to accelerate WASH. The project will collaborate with other stakeholders/funds for implementation of drinking water schemes and apply social marketing approach. ADV,INT I,E,T 3R,MUS,FSEC
