SIGUR WATER RESOURCES PROJECT

Description
-
The Sigur Water Resources Project, conducted by the Keystone Foundation in the Nilgiris district, aimed to improve water management for marginalized indigenous communities in nine villages. The project involved assessing local water resources, documenting water usage, and creating sustainable community-based water management plans. Key findings highlighted the challenges of water scarcity, pollution, and inadequate infrastructure, exacerbated by climate variability and human activities. The project fostered the formation of Water User Groups (WUGs) for local governance and resource management. A digital water portal was established to facilitate data sharing and promote sustainable practices, aiming for long-term ecological balance and community empowerment.
