Writing the Book on Water

Our USC group aren't the only students who have been intrigued by the challenges of water & health in India.

Whitman Direct Action (WDA), a student group at Whiteman College in Oregon devoted to empowering communities through economically and environmentally sustainable development, spent several months on the ground in India this spring, taking surveys and collecting information about India's water issue.

Today, they've released a summary of their findings in a collaboratively written Water Book, available for free download on their site.

The book is meant as a two-way dialogue and WDA encourages feedback and comments on each section. As the issues they describe are very similar to those that our project addresses, I encourage each of you to take a look and join the dialogue.
