However, the lack of substantive community engagement in planning and implementation of schemes as well as capacity constraints in GPs has limited the spread and implementation of this approach. As reported in a recent study for the Planning Commission (PC, 2010), only a fourth of GPs surveyed reported VWSCs and less than one percent of the respondents were aware of the VWSCs' existence. 2014-03-25T20:15:36Z 2014-03-25T20:15:36Z 2013-02 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2013/02/17770507/engaging-non-state-providers-rural-water-supply-services http://hdl.handle.net/10986/17376 English en_US Water and sanitation program working paper CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ New Delhi Publications & Research :: Working Paper Publications & Research
