Description:
Water resources are under increasing pressure. Population growth, urbanization and a steep increase in water consumption for domestic uses, agriculture and industry has created a water crisis. Climate change is exacerbating the problems of water availability. This scenario leads to water scarcity and water-conflicts worldwide and seriously undermines progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals.

Ecosan Services Foundation together with A.T.I. (Uttarakhand Academy of Administration), Nainital is carrying out Sustainable Sanitation and Water Management Executive course (SSWM) held from March 26-29, 2012 in Uttarakhand Academy of Administration, Nainital.
