KatkoWatertime Final Workshop University of Greenwich 25 November 2005 CIT: Key findings • History and present have common features in creating demand and institutional development • Water services are largely a local issue: the role of local government explains the ways of managing services • Some decisions have long-term impacts through path dependence • Decisions are often made in an ahistorical context without utilising experiences gained • Future consequences of decisions are not seen enough • Wastewater treatment is very recent in some cases • Earlier options were discussed perhaps more than now • Only certain criteria have been emphasized instead of considering water within wider PESTE dimensions
