The NCF project in Lao PDR proposes the development of small-scale infrastructure systems in Attapeu and Sekong provinces:
(1) water supply systems (based on rainwater harvesting, including innovative underground rainwater harvesting systems, gravity fed systems, solar pumps, and others)
(2) Decentralised Wastewater Treatment Systems “DEWATS”. Appropriate infrastructure resilient to extreme climate events will increase water availability and decrease health hazards incurred due to inappropriate sanitation. These systems will, therefore, decrease vulnerability to climate change of local communities in the target provinces.
