This page contains outputs from the Multiple Use Services (CPWF-MUS) project hosted by the Challenge Program on Water and Food. The project ran between 2004-2009 and was participated in by a wide-range of professional stakeholders, research and implementation communities from both the productive and domestic water sectors. The project focused on developing and putting to test tools and guidelines for multiple-use water services (MUS) delivery - this, considered an effective strategy that contributes to poverty alleviation and gender equity. Activities were carried out in the rural and peri-urban areas of five major river basins across eight countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Throughout the course of the project, the methodology of the learning alliance was used to support in the development of place-specific innovations, and in the building/strengthening of local capacity for scaling up.
