Abstract:
This collection of 19 new essays written by civil society activists, trade unionists and other water practitioners, presents examples of ongoing struggles against water privatization and commercialization as well as inspiring examples of people-centered public water management from across Asia. We hope this compilation will not only be a source of inspiration for those struggling for water for all in communities all over the continent, but also that it will contribute to strengthening the discussion about the ways forward for public water delivery in Asia.
