Young girls miss school to fetch water and the drudgery of water collection is known to cause many health problems.  Gender roles also make women the health care-takers of the family. Thus the poor quality of· water which causes water-borne diseases also affects women the most.  In some locations when water collection has to be done in the early/late hours because of the· erratic supply or nature of the source sandy river beds there are issues of womens safety also.  Being water carriers and water managers women are traditional knowledge bearers of the· season-wise water availability in different water sources source-wise water quality as compared to men.  This knowledge is very useful for planning the water supply scheme.Hence women become the· core stakeholder in the provision of Functional Household Tap Connections.  For an equal society we do want men also to take up an equal role in providing drinking water but· till this gender transformation takes place we need to ensure that women are empowered in all decisions related to drinking water management in a village. junior science refresher subscription
