Sustainable Ground Water Management (SuGWM) project is one of the major initiatives of Centre for World Solidarity (CWS) being implemented in Anantapur and Warangal districts of Andhra Pradesh. The project was started in 2011 and has its core focus on demonstrating innovative approaches in community management of ground water for water supply and sanitation services; as well as promoting equitable sharing and efficient use of the resource in agriculture. More details of the project are atwww.cwsy.org/sugwm.html. Ground water is the major source in meeting drinking water, sanitation needs as well as agriculture irrigation demand in most parts of India. Many individuals, NGOs, research and government agencies have been working on these important issues for several decades in diverse methods and demonstrated innovations / best practices, with respect to:
