{"title":"CHAPTER 10 Conclusions","authors":"L. Morris-Iveson","doi":"10.1515/9783110870879.391","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110870879.391","url":null,"abstract":"This book has provided a series of reflections by practitioners on how to make advancements into building resilient water supply services, on the basis of practical application. The main chapters include cases from a range of different contexts. This includes localities where consumers are broadly happy with their water supply and providers are planning ahead to address growing pressures. Real examples are also provided from areas where satisfaction is much lower, where substantial parts of the population do not have safely managed access to services at all. Some of the programmes and initiatives have been developed with high visibility, and with sufficient resources (including funding); however, some have received very little input, in terms of support and capacity. In all examples, action needs to be taken to improve performance levels, systems need to be in place to respond rapidly to threats and longer-term planning must ensure water security for customers and consumers; as well as safeguarding the natural environment. The case studies do not set out to portray what resilience looks like in practice – but they are representative of the ongoing efforts to respond better to the threats represented by practitioners themselves. We hope the cases can stimulate a realistic and broad discussion on actions currently taking place more generally – to understand how to respond better in the future. They provide points to ponder on how to further develop their own innovative approaches and solutions.","PeriodicalId":147654,"journal":{"name":"Remembering Victoria","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123862333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
