The one year study and implementation on the Nilgiris Water Resources project opened a window on the complex field of hill water systems, sharing, equity, upstream-downstream stakeholder perspectives. We decided to hold a workshop based on our findings that would involve stakeholders from various fora and interest groups.
The Stakeholders Meeting generated deep interest and led to the initiation of more projects that involve as many stakeholders as possible for implementation, campaigns, awareness generation, advocacy work, policy on hill waters and information dissemination through their local area networks.
Post workshop, Keystone attempts to facilitate water initiatives. Th wworkshop infact opened our eyes to the problems faced by local citizens and emboldened us to take appropiate action in cooperation with the stakeholders
