DISTRIBUTION OF WATER IN TIME OF NEED IS ONLY A SMALL PART OF SOLVING THE WORLD WATER PROBLEM. WATER RESOURCES PROJECTS TO PROVIDE LONG-TERM WATER SUPPLIES ARE NEEDED WORLD-WIDE. THE MOST NEEDY ARE THE LEAST LIKELY TO HAVE THE RESOURCES TO DEVELOP THESE SUPPLIES.

SAMPLE PROJECTS: AN INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP OF TECHNICAL EXPERTS DONATING THEIR TIME AND EXPERTISE BY TRAVELING TO SOME FOREIGN LAND OR EVEN IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY WORKING ON SITE ACCESSING PROBLEMS, WRITING PROJECT PROPOSALS, PRESENTING STUDIES FOR FUNDING, OVERSEEING DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION, LEADING WORK PARTIES, MAYBE EVEN USING A SHOVEL YOURSELF!

THIS EFFORT IS DEVOTED TO PROJECTS WHERE THE EXPERT (s) ACTUALLY WORK ON SITE. HOWEVER, THERE ARE MANY OTHER PROJECTS THAT YOU CAN TAKE ON FROM YOUR DESK OR ARMCHAIR. SPONSORSHIP OR PARTIAL SPONSORSHIP FOR SOMEONE TO ATTEND A MEETING, SYMPOSIUM, OR COLLEGE; PROVIDING SUBSCRIPTIONS TO PUBLICATIONS, A MEMBERSHIP IN AN ORGANIZATION, PROVIDING BOOKS TO UNIVERSITIES AND/OR INDIVIDUALS ARE JUST A FEW EXAMPLES. ANOTHER AT HOME ACTIVITY AVAILABLE IS AS TEACHER OR MENTOR VIA EMAIL--THE POSSIBILITIES ARE LIMITLESS.

THE GROUND RULES ARE SIMPLE:

REQUESTS WILL BE SUBMITTED TO WATER FOR PEACE IN A STANDARD FORMAT.

1. COMPENSATION: THERE WILL BE NO COMPENSATION TO THE GIVER-EXCEPT THE FRIENDSHIP OF A LIFETIME.

2. ARRANGEMENTS: HOST COUNTRIES WILL PROVIDE FOOD AND LODGING TO THE EXPERT. TRANSPORTATION WILL ALSO BE PROVIDED BY THE HOST COUNTRY. IF THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE, THE HOST COUNTRY WILL ARRANGE FOR OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE THE FUNDS. IN THE FUTURE, WATER FOR PEACE MAY BE IN A FINANCIAL POSITION TO AWARD GRANTS. AT THIS TIME IT IS WATER FOR PEACE'S POSITION TO ACT AS A FACILITATOR.

3. RESPONSIBILITIES: WATER FOR PEACE IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY PERSONS OR ENTITIES ENTERING INTO PROJECT ACTIVITIES. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PROJECT REQUESTER TO VERIFY THE CREDENTIALS OF THE GIVER, AND THE DETAILS OF THE ASSIGNMENT SHALL BE DETERMINED BY THE PARTIES INVOLVED.

WATER FOR PEACE WILL FACILITATE EXCHANGES BY POSTING REQUESTS/AVAILABILITIES.

4. PROJECT REPORTING: UPON COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT, IT IS REQUESTED THAT A BRIEF PROJECT REPORT BE SUBMITTED TO BE POSTED ON THE WATER FOR PEACE SITE.
