SRSO with the support of GoS installed 40 filteration plants(Reverse Osmosis) with a capacity of 5,000 gallons of water per day. These plants have been installed where quality of water has been reported to be unhygienic and badly contaminated and an effort has been made to make the safe water available to flood affected community.
The filtered water was stored in a fibreglass tank provided along with the filtration plant. Once the water would accumulate in the tank, beneficiaries could collect water using portable coolers, jerry cans, bottles or buckets.
Project implemented in district Sukkur, Khairpur, Jacobabad Qamber Shahdadkot and Kashmore-Kandhkot.
Along with proving communities with filtration plant, community‘s capacity to handle and maintain the unit was also developed, through training session for selected community members.
A distribution mechanism of water within the community was also proposed. This mechanism ensured that the unit benefited the maximum number of beneficiaries in the most efficient manner.
The filtration plants, benefited 28,570 families or 199,990 individuals in 40 locations.
