Water, Land & Society

Water, Land & Society

The Water, Land and Society (WLS) programme employs a problem-driven, multidisciplinary approach to generate knowledge that can explain the causes of inequity of access, unsustainability, pollution and the vulnerability of water resources. The programme’s aim is to generate usable insight that can help identify social, technological and governance solutions to India's water problems.
