What is a perspective?

Perspectives are different frameworks from which to explore the knowledge around sustainable sanitation and water management. Perspectives are like filters: they compile and structure the information that relate to a given focus theme, region or context. This allows you to quickly navigate to the content of your particular interest while promoting the holistic understanding of sustainable sanitation and water management.

This case study of a riverbank filtration (RBF) scheme at the Nile River (Upper Egypt) analyses water samples. Comparison of produced water with surface and background natural groundwater has proven effectiveness of the RBF technique for potable water supply in Upper Egypt.
