Jarillón Agua Blanca, Cali The purpose of the project is technical assistance for inspection and advice of  Jarillón de Agua Blanca dike in Calí, Colombia. The Fondo de Adaptación wanted to prepare a diagnostic of the structural condition of ‘Jarillón de Agua Blanca’ in Calí. The Jarillón de Agua Blanca is the only structural flood protection against floods from the Cauca River. The first and most important aspect of this project is the assessment of physical condition and current structural stability of the dike system along the left bank of the Rio Cauca and Cali River to prepare a plan for repairing or strengthening of dikes after the damage caused during the last floods, assess the impact of anthropomorphic factors (occupation and misuse of the dikes) to ensure the protection of dikes to meet functional requirements without fail under various scenarios of risk-based floods.The Jarillón de Agua Blanca has suffered during the floods of 2010-11. The progressive deterioration increases vulnerability from flooding due to sudden rupture given the frequent changes in water level, accentuated in recent years by climate variability and progressive anthropogenic impacts on the upper basin of the Cauca River. These facts put at risk a direct population of 700,000 inhabitants living in this area of the municipality of Cali and will also damage the largest water treatment plant that supplies around 60% of the city.President Santos, considered the diagnosis of the Jarillón, with top priority. In November 2011 the Fondo de Adaptación requested the Colombian Netherlands Water Partnership (CNWP)  to provide technical assistance to ensure the highest quality in the diagnosis of the structural condition of the Jarillón and take measures to minimize the risk of failure during the coming flood seasons.Royal Haskoning DHV has been commissioned to carry out the project.

Rural water supply has been successfully extended from 29% in 1992 to 63% in 2011 coverage of the rural population. However, as more systems are installed, the breakdown of existing facilities needs to be addressed. The project introduces a mobile monitoring system using sms by which communities can report broken water facilities. Also the project will set up an effective response system for District Authorities and GoG using the internet and mobile phones, whereby the government can effectively budget and plan investments. Out of ten regions in Ghana, this project focuses on 6 regions and more than 100 districts, envisaging impact in terms of water and sanitation on approximately eight million Ghana citizens. The Dutch IRC is partnering in this project with the Community Water and Sanitation Agency (CWSA), a governmental agency responsible for facilitating the provision of safe drinking water and sanitation services to rural communities and small towns in Ghana, as well as Skyfox Ltd, a mobile service organization, the Dutch ICT company AKVO, and the NGO Water for People.

Pollution prevention and water reduction in Leather Cluster The Ganga River Basin in Northern India is one of the most polluted and over-used river basins in the world. The Kanpur Unnao leather cluster is one of the largest polluting industries in the Ganga River Basin. A major challenge is to establish effective cooperation between the public water authorities responsible for effluent treatment and the small, medium and large scale tanning companies who are responsible for reducing the pollution loads (metals, salts, organic waste). Within the project, a partnership platform will be established between the tanners and the local water authorities.
