There is a significant difference between the attributes - Brand, availability, packaging. The River
water cannot be used for domestic purposes without any form of treatment. There is no clear
distinction as to ownership of water in the customary practice; it varies from community to
community. The company entered the bottled water business in September 1999 under the Aquafina
brand. Based on feedback from you, our users, we've made some improvements that make it easier

of processed foods for the people and low level of supply for food distribution around the world.
Sarpong ( 2014 ) in a study indicated that temperature and turbidity vary in concentration in relation
to required standards. Sign up for email notifications and we'll let you know about new publications

water in England and Wales as it also ensures at the same time the consistency of water flow in rivers
(Environment Agency, 2011). The adoption and implementation of these suggestions will bring about
effective and efficient water resources management for sustainable development and peaceful co-
existence. Taylor Water Cycle Innovation Ltd, Johannesburg, Gauten, South Africa Karen G. One
important aspect that is highly affected by industrialisation is the potential healthy supply and source
of drinking water. Thus, many people would experience hunger as the tertiary sector would have less
supply of foods to be distributed worldwide. Conflict of interest The authors declare that the
research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be
construed as a potential conflict of interest. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the research of
Water Resources Carrying Capacity, we divided the research progress into five stages lastly. The
primary sector not being able to produce the required level and volume of food production and
supply would mean less opportunity for the secondary sector. The limestone aquifers have an
average yield of about 184 cubic metres per hour (Ghana National Water Policy 2007; WRC Ghana
2007 ). Incorporating 1st and 2nd Addenda, Recommendations. The study analyzed water reliability
across three housing types: standalone mobile homes, mobile homes in park communities and all
other housing units. Work around California’s Human Right to Water and related mapping tool, and
additional applications of the Household Water Insecurity Survey by researchers over the next few
years will help to grow the evidence base. The participants were divided according to the Revised
IAP BMI charts. The political climate caused an exodus of donor support from the nation, which
consequently caused a laggard. Nsubuga FNW, Namutebi EN, Nsubuga-Ssenfuma M (2014) Water
resources of Uganda: an assessment and review. Contamination of Water Resources The need for
safe drinking water plays an important role in ensuring a healthy life. The nodes that are most closely
connected to the water resources carrying capacity node are the management node and the
sustainable development node ( Figure 6.). The carrying capacity of water resources is an important
means for water resources management and an important measure for achieving sustainable
development of water resources. FIGURE 6. Nodes connected to water resources carrying capacity
Node. The WAWRP is founded on the following legal principles; (a) “promote, coordinate and
ensure the implementation of a regional water resource policy in West Africa, in accordance with the
mission and policies of Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS)and (b)
“harmonization and coordination of national policies and the promotion of programmes, projects and
activities, especially in the field of agriculture and natural resources”. These rights, however, do not
entitle people to free water, unlimited use or a household connection. A large and heterogeneous set
of factors may explain this decrease, ranging from structural phenomena, such as changes in the
composition of urban populations or in the economic basis of cities to the implementation of more
conscious policies such as technological improvements; citizen awareness or higher water prices and
taxes. Political shenanigans created an imbalance that resulted in two forms of water i.e., water as an
economic good vs. In Indonesia, the incidence of dysmenorrhea is around 55% and in West Java it is
54.9%. Nonpharmacological pain management can be done by giving red ginger and green coconut
water.
It is a reality that hunger or poverty is associated with crimes. Challenges of WRM in Ghana It is
worth acknowledging that a lot have been done for the development of legal, political and
institutional framework for management of water resource in Ghana and even beyond. It’s the
citizens themselves, armed with civic and electoral knowledge and a deep understanding of their
rights and responsibilities. In East Africa, Uganda and Kenya are at medium-high level while
Tanzania is medium-low. Work around California’s Human Right to Water and related mapping tool,
and additional applications of the Household Water Insecurity Survey by researchers over the next
few years will help to grow the evidence base. Washington State is pursuing water insecurity
interventions through community education events, drought risk assessment, water loss detection and
utility rate capping. Chlorine Poisoning from Chlorinated Water Chlorine is widely used to treat
drinking water in order to kill pathogens that cause typhoid, dysentery, and cholera. The low
turbidity indicates higher primary productivity of Ayensu Basin. When Switzer and Teodoro
included SES as an interactive term (descriptor of the population), the effects of increasing
community race and ethnicity on drinking water violations declined as SES increased. For instance,
the Water Allocation Reform (WAR) was drafted with the aid of the UK Department of International
Development. Aside from penal sanctions like infliction of fines and sacrifices, religious and cultural
beliefs, norms and values are also crucial means of ensuring compliance with the customary rules on
water supply. Results: The study results shows that 43.33% of samples are having moderate pain in
pre test of cinnamon tea and in post test of cinnamon tea group 40% each having mild and moderate
pain, 20% having no pain. Three key factors affecting water security include: Climate changes that
are increasing the frequency and severity of droughts, floods, wildfires and other natural disasters. It
is important to note that evolutionary treaties are incremental innovation. This amount of water
utilized is estimated to the amount of water that about 40 to 80 cities can utilize in a year. However
and differently than other essential flows such as energy, money or materials, water is essentially
bounded to local or regional environments for direct uses. Managing water resources to meet current
social, economic, and environmental needs without compromising the ability to meet those needs in
the future, requires water managers to look beyond jurisdictional boundaries and their immediate
supply operations, protect shared water and marine environments, resources and ecosystems from
pollution and over-abstraction and deliver structural changes and. If the country were to harness
hydroelectric power from Pra River, then we did generate 125 MW from the facility. In the world,
one of the largest man-made lakes is Akosombo dam which cover an area of about 8500 km 2 and
148 km 3 water volume capacity (Ghana National Water Policy 2007; Mensah 2010; WRC Ghana
2015 ). Underground spring is carefully selected based on its portability and pathogen free water.
Great. The population in this study were 122 students of SMA Negeri 03 Bengkulu City, grades X
and XI who experienced dysmenorrhea. Shamsudduha, M. et al. The Bengal water machine:
quantified freshwater capture in Bangladesh. Sensitisation and education on the menace of illegal
mining and creating alternative livelihood activities for victims Illegal mining have taken a toe in the
limited water resources, destroying a lot of fresh water bodies in Ghana. Quality drinking water is
important to human health and the general well-being. The success of any event heavily depends
upon the way chosen for its execution. This was attributable to the perceived natural climatological
and geological conditions. Basically the customary and statutory laws have failed to address
challenges associated with water resources management, hence the need to adopt efficient and
robust approach to arresting the menace. The tradition of bottled water and mineral water is not very
old. Therefore, it is only 1% of the world’s water that is actually available for drinking. Chen, J., and
Sapsford, D. (2005) Global development and poverty reduction: the challenge for international
institutions.
After calculating the various means, the figure below represents these means plotted against each
other. Attitudinal change cannot ensue overnight; however well-planned awareness creation and
proper advocacy as well as behavioural change public services to these miners can make the currently
situation better. Though the company is present only in selected market as of now, it has. The period
from 2007 to 2016 recorded the most numerous proceeding papers published per year, indicating that
a large number of proceeding papers published have played an important role in the development of
WRCC. This does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
Thus, the researched opine that water scarcity pushed the region to adopt the IWRM strategy inorder
to mitigate the looming effects of climate change on surface water availainility. 3.2.2 Trans-boundary
water resources. This research was funded by the Center for Disease Control, Cooperative
Agreement Numbers 1 NUE1EH001347 and 5 NUE2EH001330. Many of them said that they are
demanding more ATW’s in Panchayats where there are more number of villages. The various acts
signed represent an evolutionary treaty development that combines the efforts of riparian states to
better manage the shared water resources. Purity and safety are two major factors taken care in
sourcing and processing of Kingfisher water. Control and experimental group were observed for one
month. Sign in via your Institution Citing articles via, publish with us - request a quote. This was
attributable to the perceived natural climatological and geological conditions. However, the country
still faces numerous challenges in its quest to meet the current and future needs. In the world, one of
the largest man-made lakes is Akosombo dam which cover an area of about 8500 km 2 and 148 km 3
water volume capacity (Ghana National Water Policy 2007; Mensah 2010; WRC Ghana 2015 ). At
the same time, the model node and the system dynamics node are also the most closely connected
nodes to each other. The number of outbreaks and illnesses is likely underreported; symptoms are
usually mild and resolve quickly. The limestone aquifers have an average yield of about 184 cubic
metres per hour (Ghana National Water Policy 2007; WRC Ghana 2007 ). Researchers hypothesized
that households receiving water service from small systems (defined in this study as systems not
regulated by Safe Drinking Water Act, or those systems that serve fewer than 15 connections or 25
people) experience more interruptions in service than larger systems. Further, small potentially
unregulated systems are less likely to be properly maintained and thus are prone to gaps in service. In
the meantime, to ensure continued support, we are displaying the site without styles and JavaScript.
The risk of selection bias for both studies is low since researchers used random sampling to identify
participants. Thereafter, the extracted data was coded according to the extracted patterns from the
information source to constitute a theme. For instance, there are some limitations on the maximum
amount of toxic substances allowed in water for it to be termed as “safe” for drinking. Another
challenge posed by multi-cultural water users is the interpretation and translation of innovations.
Immerzeel, W. W. et al. Importance and vulnerability of the world’s water towers. Hopefully it is not
yet too late for everything to address this ominous string of unfortunate events. This makes the
bibliometric research process more systematic and efficient compared to previous studies. As a result,
there is no guarantee that just because water comes out of a bottle it is safer for drinking. The recent
lack of water in Sunyani was not due to equipment but farming activities, where the residents
blocked the river course in order to irrigate farms (Mantey 2017 ). Severally governments have made
attempts to mitigate or if possible arrest the problem, but the problem still persists to date.
Based on feedback from you, our users, we've made some improvements that make it easier than

previous studies have focused more on some provinces and cities. The River water cannot be used
for domestic purposes without any form of treatment. A project report on designing and
implementing the market strategy plan for p. The major non-consumptive uses of water include
water transport, inland fisheries, hydropower generation and tourism (recreational activities like
waterfalls) as well as ecosystem support services. Kinley. The company has tied up with Kothari

Research Article Water resource management: IWRM strategies for improved water management.
One important aspect that is highly affected by industrialisation is the potential healthy supply and
source of drinking water. This would only mean maximisation of water resource. Although it is
unlikely that one single reason can explain the declining trend, our conclusion points to a
combination of structural factors and specific policies that seem to be more intense in the Northern
and Central cities than in the Southern cities. DFID KaR Project R7327 Mensah F (2010) Integrated
water resource management in Ghana: past, present, and future. IWRM suffered another setback
caused by the governing party when they introduced radical innovations that sought to shift from the
socialist to neoliberal water resource use approach. Political shenanigans created an imbalance that
resulted in two forms of water i.e., water as an economic good vs. This could be attributable to the
fact that water is a common resource (tragedy of the common) with no clear ownership though that
mandate is vested on the chiefs and the traditional authorities. Funding: This study was supported by
the National Research Foundation (NRF) in the form of a grant awarded to TLD (131377) and
VarMac Consulting Engineers in the form of a salary for TLD. The silo system at national level
prevents effective innovation diffusion and distorts policy interpretation and the subsequent
dissemination at the local level.i. Water affairs are politicised and often, the water reform policy fails
to balance the Dublin’s principles which form the backbone of the IWRM innovation policy
approach. SADC member states established the Protocol on Shared Water Systems (PSWS) which
meant to encourage sustainable water resources utilisation and management. The retrieval time is
August 15, 2020. 2.2.2 Records screening During the search process, some files irrelevant to the
topic will inevitably be retrieved. Having collected samples from various sources, we set out to
establish the level of TDS from each source. They process water with the most modern, high tech
equipment sodium filtration resulting. Physical determinants of water security such as drinking water
and wastewater storage, treatment and delivery systems, housing status and geographic location.
This poses a public health challenge to provide well-testing resources and to educate private well
owners on the importance of wellhead stewardship, well maintenance, water testing and treatment if
contaminants are present at elevated levels of concern. Of the 95 articles, the majority were water
resources, environmental studies and engineering focused, while fewer than 10 articles focused on
public health. This means that the world consumes huge volume of water in a year per person.
Therefore, we could feasibly produce neither an aggregate measure of effect nor a critical appraisal
of studies. 2.1. Search Strategy and Screening Criteria We looked for sources discussing water
insecurity at the individual, household, community, state and national level with a public health
focus. Ghana freshwater resources are made of surface and groundwater bodies. Carrying capacity
was however introduced from biology where it was applied in the study of wild animals ( Young,
1998; Malthus, 1798 ). Aquafina holds 11% market presence with followed by 20%. Also, you can

water sector stakeholders tasked with reducing demand, and for academic researchers interested in
understanding how these complex issues intertwine to create current and future water demand
profiles, the shortcomings of individualized behavior.
Quality drinking water is important to human health and the general well-being. From early 1970,
population and economic expansion, which sustained for 30 years, created a contradiction between
social development and environmental sustainability and this triggered a worldwide exploration of
the issue of Resources and Environmental Carrying Capacity (RECC). The study further employed a
constructionist thematic analysis to extract common recurring themes amongst the regions. 2.2.1
Eligibility criteria. This challenge has compelled the Ghana Water Company to construct boreholes
which will serve smaller masses. United Nations Water, the Global Water Partnership, and the World
Economic Forum are a few of the international organizations focused on global water security
efforts. Abdominal cramps are one of the most common problems experienced by teenage girls
during menstruation. Interpretation - Due to distribution channel Kinley is very easily available in

paper is archaic (( Zhang and Wang, 2012 ), was published 8 years ago), and does not reflect the
bibliometric analysis of current WRCC research. Physical determinants of water security such as
drinking water and wastewater storage, treatment and delivery systems, housing status and
geographic location. The lighter the color of the node means that the research in that area is the
current hotspot. FIGURE 10. Keyword evolution process. We assessed article abstracts for relevance
before retrieving full texts. It is a traditional resource used to perform various functions like pouring
libation aside from the domestic use (Ofori-Boateng 1977 ). Integrated water resources management
(IWRM) For sustainable, equitable and efficient water resources use, there is the need for fully
implementation of IWRM which is an integrated approach. There is a significant difference between
the attributes - Brand, availability. Co-existence between the customary laws and practices as well as
the statutory laws There should be a need for a reconciliation of the traditional management
(customary laws) and statutory laws to effectively address water resources management problems.
Thus, judicial mechanism should be developed for settling conflicts, disputes that arise from water
resources management. Ghana is drained by the South-Western, Volta, and Coastal River Systems.
Also, freshwater resources usage can be put into two main categories, namely ex situ (withdrawal
use) and in situ or in-stream use and could also be referred to as the consumptive and non-
consumptive use, respectively. DFID KaR Project R7327 Mensah F (2010) Integrated water resource
management in Ghana: past, present, and future. Pivotal Basins (Orange, Incomati, and Limpopo)
are international river basins that face closure but are also strategically important to anyone (or all) of
the pivotal states by virtue of the range and magnitude of economic activity that they support. Lake
Victoria, the source of the Nile River is shared by the three East African states of Kenya, Uganda and
Tanzania. For example, despite having significant water resources, the lack of a collective effort by
the governments to train water experts at national level presents a challenge for adoption. As
population increases per year, livestock production and other related agricultural activities should be
expected to increase as well and this would further mean higher demand for sufficient water supply.
Basically Ghana is made up of three discharge or outlet systems, namely the Coastal River Systems
which is the least and Volta constituting the largest and with the South-Western been the
intermediate. The incidence of dysmenorrhea in West Java was quite high, the results of the study
found that 54.9% of women experienced dysmenorrhea, consisting of 24.5% experiencing mild
dysmenorrhea, 21.28% experiencing moderate dysmenorrhea and 9.36% experiencing severe
dysmenorrhea. Undoubtedly, successful implementation of the IWRM plan will be depended on
existing institutions and structures. Rural or remote residents served by private wells with low means
to assure adequate supply and quality are disproportionately affected by water insecurity. These
characteristics must be considered to develop demand management policies and an updated
hydrological planning to ensure urban supply in a future with less available water resources.
GB5749-2006 Hygienic standard for drinking water. (2006). However, conflicts that emanate from
water resources use were squarely handled by traditional authorities. For instance, the Water
Allocation Reform (WAR) was drafted with the aid of the UK Department of International
Development.

increase. In some parts of Southern England for instance, around 80% of the drinking water comes
from groundwater reservoir (Environment Agency, 2011). In this Review, we evaluate the current
and historical evolution of water resources, considering surface water and groundwater as a single,
interconnected resource. The World Bank (2011) Growth and Productivity in Agriculture and

treatment plants in Kyebi were forced to shut down due to pollution of the river which is beyond
treatment. Ghana is drained by the South-Western, Volta, and Coastal River Systems. Also,
freshwater resources usage can be put into two main categories, namely ex situ (withdrawal use) and
in situ or in-stream use and could also be referred to as the consumptive and non-consumptive use,
respectively. Afterwards, other concepts such as Land Carrying Capacity ( Shi et al., 2013 ),
Environmental Carrying Capacity ( Li et al., 2019 ), and Resource Carrying Capacity ( Wang et al.,
2020 ) emerged, peaking research on carrying capacity. However, just prior to achieving solutions to
these struggles, other related problems may also potentially exist at the same time, and so on. Other
shared water basins include the Malakisi-Malaba-Sio River basin shared between Uganda and Kenya
and the Kagera River basin traversing Burundi, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda. Consistent quality
and taste are two of the principal differences between bottled water. The review therefore seeks to
assess water resources with focus on freshwater, the challenges, the quality of freshwater in terms of
chemical, physical and biological variables as well as blending integrated water management with the
indigenous or traditional management of water resources for sustainable development and peaceful
co-existence. The rest of this paper is outlined as follows; section 2 presents the conceptual
framework adopted and the subsequent methodology. After all, it’s hard to stick to rules and
recommendations if you don’t know why exactly you should do it. The survey results present an
opportunity to further identify water access needs and public health impacts among those
experiencing homelessness in all Oregon counties. The tradition of bottled water and mineral water is
not very old. Department of Ecotourism and Environmental Management, Faculty of Natural
