Smart Water Solutions in Small Packages: Stories from Pilot and Demonstration Activities
Asian Development Bank | August 2011
Abstract
The Asian Development Bank's Facility for Pilot and Demonstration Activity was designed to validate new approaches, strategies, methodologies, and technologies for improved water resources management and water services delivery. Launched in 2002, it is the first small-grant facility that provides quick funding to government clients and other development partners for water projects, with the intention of replicating and/or scaling up successful innovative practices. This publication outlines how the Facility works as a financing mechanism for small water pilot projects and highlights its achievements through case studies, and how its replication can provide small solutions to Asia's big water problems and to the challenges other sectors face as well.
